Pat is our hostess for this week's MMTPT556 Old School challenge. We are to use sock monkeys (see the challenge to find out why!) or go old school with our supplies. No sock monkeys here, except a couple of little knitted ones for the Christmas tree, so I pulled out a couple of my older stamps and my definitely old chalks.
Stamped the scroll background in Versamark and added the chalks with an applicator. Stamped and coloured the little kitty. I used a brad in the centre of her bow, in the corner of the frame and as a dot on the "j". I also added some Liquid Pearls in the frame on the cat portrait, and doodled a frame on the black card base. I would guess that the stamps and the chalks are both over fifteen years old. The brads - that's anyone's guess!!

Great old stamps and terrific BG with your chalks. I am not sure I can remember the last time I used my chalks, it might be time for me to bring those out for some fun.

Awwww, this little kitten with her big yellow bow is just the sweetest Sabrina. It is as if she is saying, "check me-owt" because she knows how cute she is! Your colorful swirly bg is fantastic and so is the fancy white doodles you added to your card base. The little flower and star embellishments are my favorite! This is just the sweetest darned card Sabrina! ~Karen.
