STAMPS: Impression-Obsession - AUTUMN BOUQUET
Impression-Obsession - EARLY SUNSETS (thankful verse)
On Strathmore vellum bristol paper, I stamped the AUTUMN BOUQUET image a few times around the outside with TH distress ink in antique linen. I used just portions of the stamp. I colored the images using Polychromos colored pencils in muted fall colors, staying with golds and browns, with touches of brick red.
When finished with the coloring, I used vintage photo distress ink to add background blending. I embossed the thankful phrase with gold.
I layered the panel onto gold glitter paper from my stash, then foam taped it to a textured rust colored A2 card. Some fall colored gems finish off the card.
I hope you are inspired by this small but mighty stamp, and my creations. Thanks so much for your comments, and for stopping by today.
