For today's Color Challenge, CC108. I received some new stamps in the mail yesterday and couldn't wait to play with them. They are from Lizzie Anne Designs and are simply fabulous! These stamps are outlines, so I started off my coloring the stamps with my markers, misting and then stamping twice on watercolor paper. I covered the outlines with clear embossing powder and embossed. I then water colored the insides of the outlines with reinkers and a watercolor brush. Decided that I needed to cut part of the petals out in order to have some background to work with and drew some doodles. The sentiment was stamped and punched out with the word window punch and then layered and hand-trimmed (which is why it is so crooked). The background paper is Pheobe by BasicGrey and is layered on the Always Artichoke paper. The card is finished off with some ribbon and brads!
