I stamped the Tulips with Memento Rich Cocoa, which is less harsh than using black ink. I colored the image with Copics-I no longer list all the numbers because I used quite a few markers in coloring this image. I trimmed the image with a fancy oval die...the maker is no longer remembered by me but the die is a silver color. If someone knows the maker, please share that information with me. One of the challenges of card making that I enjoy is matching the right patterned paper with an image. For this design, I chose a pattern from MME Memorable pad and used it with a white card base. I liked the look of this card as is and decided not to add a sentiment or any other enhancement. Will used the inside of the card to add a sentiment when I decide to use the card.

ReplyDeleteThis is totally gorgeous. Love, love, love the image of the tulips in a bucket and your colouring is awesome. I had a good smile at your story too - it's quite hard to get too excited about listing your supplies so I really liked your silver coloured die! Thanks so much for joining in with us at Retro Rubber Challenge.
