Stamped images, an overdue confession

I have a confession to make...I always said I wasn't fond of stamped images and could easily just draw my own... well, it turns out I've converted to stampism. I'm coining the phrase ok? Stampism: the art of "borrowing" or purchasing someone else's image, coloring it in, or whatever, and using it as your own. There, I said it! My hang up has always been that I love to draw, and I love to make my own images, but let's face it, it's easier to let someone else do the work sometimes and just have fun with the coloring, so I might be seen wearing a paper bag over my head at local crops for a while, but I've seen getups that pass for eccentric that are far worse so....

I borrowed the little monster kid-he's cute, and the phrase... the gears are technique tuesday, and there you have it.
p.s. The images used in these cards are NOT my own design, and I'm thankful to those who designed them for my benefit!
