Since I have the same set, I thought I would try her blended pencil technique. I never did it before. It's kind of cool.
I stamped in river rock then I used SU colored pencils and did the technique as instructed.
The only problem is, I didn't really have a grey so I used what was closest to that color.
I mounted my image on orchid oppulence and my mat is mellow moss. The ribbon, believe it or not, came off my coffee cup. Yup, you heard me right, off my coffee cup. It just matched perfectly and I didn't like it on the cup, it was bothering me.
tfl and congrats to our qftd.
happy stamping!

Very pretty, Dara. I will never tire of that image. That's a pretty ribbon to come off a coffee cup.
