Hurray.....playing my favorite challenge....Roxie's Sketch Challenge! After a long great fall vacation I am finally getting into the swing of stamping again. Thanks Roxie for a fun and challenging layout. I think I ended up with about 12 layers and used several different sheets of SU Woodland Walk DP. I also used watercolor spritzing for the main image. I inked the image with Garden Green and then spritzed with 91% alcohol onto watercolor paper (very important). That makes the ink really spread. The blue tinge along the stem was from the garden green ink bleeding. I then inked my stamp again with garden green and stamped directly over the 1st image using my stampamajig. That gives the image more detail and depth.
I used the new 3/4" oval punch for the sentiment, and also framed the sentiment with 2 garden green CS punched ovals. I used another V Vanilla oval tab under the ribbon tab.
The rest of the card is just lots of layering. Enjoy and TFL......
