For today's inspiration challenge, I selected an image from the Wine Country - - http://www.lang.com/product/1002121. (If you click on more images, it's the top one on the right. ) I've had this stamp in my stash for awhile and had never inked it. I colored the image with prismacolor pencils and blended with gamsol. The BG of the image is chalked. The BG paper is grapevines and leaves.
This stamp is so big - it's hard to work with. The finished card is 5 x 7.
Thanks for taking a look.
