Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
When I saw Amy's sketch at Freshly Made Sketches #729, I knew just what I
wanted to do. This stamp has been in my NBUS box for almost a year and
this was the perfect opportunity to use it.
First, here's the sketch...
I used Memento Toffee Crunch to stamp onto mixed media paper and colored
with Zig markers and a waterbrush. So fun!
I tried some different backgrounds and like the black best so it became my "white" space.
I had so much fun that I want to do another. I hope I get to it and not distracted
with other things that keep coming into my craft room.

Ink: Toffee Crunch, Tuxedo Black (Mem)

Enjoy!

I am glad you pulled that stamp out! It is so beautifully colored and I love that you used black in the background - it accents it perfectly! Thank you for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful coloring, Bonnie! This screams Spring, even with a dark band. It's also great when something pops right into your brain
ReplyDeleteYour flowers are to bright and beautiful, Bonnie. Love them in this oval shape. The black really makes the colours of the flowers pop any more. Gorgeous card, my friend! xx
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous, Bonnie! Your flowers are so beautifully coloured. I have to confess - I have this set and didn't like the one and only card I made with it so put the set to one side, but you may very well have encouraged me to give it another go. Thanks so much for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches.
ReplyDeletebeautiful stamp and gorgeous watercolouring, Bonnie
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful array of flowers and colours! They really stand out against the black card base.
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card! Love the colorful flowers and contrast of the dark background!
ReplyDeleteBonnie, I love how the contrast of the black background draws your eyes right to the bright flowers. Stunning card!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous especially against the black (great choice). Beautifully water coloured, too.
