The Greeting Farm - Skater Ian

Hello Everyone!

I'm back today over on The Greeting Farms blog with my last post as this months guest designer.   I thought it would be super fun to use the very first TGF stamp that I purchased!!  I immediately fell in love with Skater Ian because my son at the time was just a little guy learning how to skateboard (hard to believe he will be 16 and driving in a couple months).   

Before I go I would like to give a huge thanks to Joni and Rosie for having me as a guest designer this month...it felt so good coming back to the farm for a visit!!  Thanks so much Ladies!!

Paper: White CS (Recollections), Night of Navy CS (SU!), Lime Twist Out of the Blue 6x6 pad (My Minds Eye); Stamps: Skater Ian (The Greeting Farm), Hey Dude Sentiment (My Guy Ian Set, The Greeting Farm), Happy Birthday Sentiment (SU!); Ink: Tuxedo Black (Memento); Coloring Medium: Copic Markers; Tools: Classic Circle Nestabilities (Spellbinders), Star Border Punch (Martha Stewart), Oh My Stars (Confetti Cut), Fishtail Flags Stax (Die-Namics); Other: Metal Dots, Glossy Accents (Ranger), ATG Tape, Foam Tape
