Autumn Thank You

I bought this Penny Black stamp set a while back, but haven't had a chance to use it. With the pretty fall foliage, the poppy stamp was calling me to give it a try. So here it is. My first attempt and I am sure I will use the poppy stamp quite often.

I first stamped the flowers with gray ink on a piece of watercolor card, then colored the flowers using watercolor pencils. I also used gold acrylic paint to add a stripe on the right and used my new gold Sakura Gelly Roll pen to add dots around the flowers. 




Here is a close-up. Those gold dots really sparkle.


I am playing along with the following challenges. Thank you for visiting!

  5. That is a beautiful stamp but what YOU did with it was gorgeous. I find no-line coloring so difficult. You did a great job. This is really beautiful. Someone is going to be very luck to receive this card!!
