I used one of the flowers from STAMPlorations, Bloom Sketches set and stamped it in soft suede (SU!) several times using a mask. Then I coloured it with some pencil crayons. I stuck with white and browns to keep it neutral and soft. I stamped the sentiment (Stampabilities) in the soft suede as well. That's it. Simple, one layer and sweet. I love this flower stamp. So pretty. :-)
I'm linking up to the following challenges:
STAMPlorations - December challenge, pick a previous challenge. I chose stamps and flowers.
STAMPlorations - ongoing anything goes challenge
Addicted to CAS - code word is "family".
The Card Concept - inspired by the neutral colours. In my usual CAS style.
Well, I hope you are all having a wonderful day and I thank you for dropping by for a visit!
Goodness, Kim! This is GORGEOUS! Absolutely love the neutral colors you used -- super shading with the pencil crayons -- and great masking!! Hugs!
