or is that four knitters, four gossipy old birds???
It was our anniversary earlier this month and DH got me several Penny Black stamps that are images I love but don't consider useful enough to buy for myself. So I stamped this image before I rang my dad tonight, and had more than enough time to colour it while we talked, leaving just the chalking till after I was finished.
I cut my A2 base from watercolour card, scored it and stamped the PB image. I added a couple of Whippersnapper hay bales with some masking. Coloured with distress inks. Stamped some sand for the foreground with Versamark and chalked it. Drew in some grass with chalk and softened it up with a brush. Stuck on some cloud masks and dusted chalk over the sky. At this stage I decided to turn their shelf into a bench, so I just drew the legs in.
This will go to one of my best friends who is a knitter.
