This hydrangea stamp set is one I've been wanting for a long, long time and I just bought this last week finally. I love it! I love to color and this one was fun. I used mostly pencils and mineral spirits, but experimented with distress inks and markers too. I added a couple of popped up flowers. The ribbon is a little short, but all I had was a little scrap piece. I didn't sponge the image or highlight it, I wanted to be all about the flowers and I loved the vivid contrast.
This is for the WT329 challenge, something old, the ink is "Eggplant Envy" from a long time ago, and the new is the stamp set. TFL!
