I stamped this image first using Creamy Caramel ink onto water color paper. In order to get the best coverage of ink onto the stamp, I found using a brayer works best. I then colored the image in using S.U. pastels. For the main card background, after stamping Victorian Leaves in Close to Cocoa, I used the Close to Cocoa classic spot ink pad to make the Close to Cocoa layer around the outside layer.

Unbelievable! Your coloring is great! I couldn't even begin to color something like this. I've gotten three of the Thomas Kinkaid stamps and just use them mono-chrome. Yours is absolutely beautiful! I'm jealous!
