Hello peeps,
I did some late afternoon stamping and coloring today. I hadn't inked up this new stamp that was in the last Gina K Designs release yet and when I saw the fall color palette for the new Sunday Stamps Challenge, I knew it would be fun to color the stamp in these colors.
After stamping the image using Gina K Amalgam black ink, I colored it with colored pencils and used Gamsol to help with blending. (I call it coloring in the Gina K way.)
After coloring the image, I used the Gina K Master Layout 2 dies to cut the white image panel and the dark brown mat. The card base is the old SU Really Rust card stock.
I kept the inside of my card fairly simple by stamping the flower image in the upper corner and the greeting in the center. Like the front, I matted the focal panel.
Have a great Thursday and thanks for looking in,
Colleen

ReplyDeleteI grew up in that flower child era and your card really speaks to me LOL! Fortunately, the colors you used are much softer and prettier than a lot of the 60's color palettes, but that design and sentiment sure evoke alot of fun memories. Your colored pencil coloring is so beautiful and I love those gold embellies. Thank you so much for joining the current challenge at Sunday Stamps!
