I love the Kodomo Zigen stamps - they are a thing of beauty in their own right, and I have several arranged on a ledge in my attic. The line was discontinued a while back, but this one was still in stock at Frantic Stamper when I placed an order early this year - so DH gave me this for my birthday ;-).
I've made this as a birthday card for my aunt, since - many, many years ago - she worked for a couple of years in Madagascar. I've kept it perfectly plain and simple, just matting the image and putting a sentiment on the inside.

Oh, so lovely! And thank you for doing it in Inktense! I need all the examples of good Inktense-ing I can get, since I am learning how to use mine. Practice, practice. And look at beautiful cards like this one!

WOW, I do not believe I have ever heard of this stamp line but this scene is spectacular!! I can see why you have them lined up- love the way you have colored the images- these stamps look like they would definitely be "keepers" :-)
