Welcome to another card for
Our theme this month is 'Spotlight Stamping'
I began by stamping the poppies onto my card front using my Misti with black Memento ink. I scribbled onto my non-stick craft mat with my Tombow markers and picked up the colour with a wet paintbrush to watercolour in the background.
Next, I stamped the flower heads onto another piece of white cardstock and punched them out.
I added a loose watercolour wash using my Zigs markers.
While they dried, I stamped the sentiment that I just picked up and then pop dot mounted the flower heads to spotlight them.
Thanks for looking.
Hope you will come and play along with us!
