Holiday Card Class Day 4

I finally got around to getting back to Day #4 over at the Online Card Class Holiday Card Workshop.

Day #4: Cards with Outline Stamps

Technique #1: Coloring with Distress Inks

Didn't care for this technique - would have been faster and less messy for me to color with copics -- and I think it would have turned out better. I can't even imagine making 100 cards -- maybe would have been better with a different stamp!
