BSS MONDAY IDEA - Pointillism Technique

Welcome to the Buffalo Stamps and Stuff Monday Idea.

This week, I have revisited a technique I haven't used in many years.
Artists refer to it as Pointillism.  It's done using small dots to fill in the open areas on your stamped image.

Split Coast Stampers has a great picture and video tutorial on the technique (HERE).

What I Used

Stamp - Art Gone Wild - Flower Frame 1 (AGC3-2737)
I fussy cut the outside image out before adhering to green mat.
Inside Sentiment - Penny Black - Special Wishes (30-229)
Paper - Peach and green textured card stock
Die - Spellbinder's 5x7 Elegant Labels 4
Peach Ribbon, small lace flower and rhinestons
Copic Markers

Practice on one small stamped flower.  But, this technique isn't limited
to flowers.

Thanks for stopping by today.
Have a great day.
