Stampendous Bouquets...

Here are two more cards that I created for the Stampendous catalog. I love these framed images in the Thinking Bouquet Set. Since I was running low on Frost Blue Copic, instead of coloring the entire window I did a pointilism technique. Love this technique!!! Speeds up the coloring time but not having to worry about blending! Saves ink! And brightens the image with all that white showing through!


Here is another card using the same coloring technique but instead I went with greys and yellows for a more autumnal tone.


supplies used:
stamps: Stampendous Thinking Bouquet Perfectly Clear Set
pattern paper: American Crafts
ribbon: Creative Impressions
coloring medium: Copics
