BSS IDEA - Flower Lanterns

WELCOME TO THE BUFFALO STAMPS AND STUFF IDEA.

I hope you are enjoying the last bit of summer before

kids start to return to school.

This week, I tackled the Flower Lanterns stamp

from Penny Black.  The card I am showing here

today is my third attempt.  But I finally figured it

out.  I stamped the image onto water color paper

using Antique Linen distress ink.  I then 

water colored it using various colors of my

distress inks.  Just tap your pad onto your

craft sheet and spritz with water to create

water colors.  

Stamp - Penny Black - Flower Lanterns (40-547)

Embossing Folder - Sizzix 3-D Textured Impressions

Basketweave

Candi embellishments

I loaded the brush with dark brown and then

green water color paint and tapped it over

the image to create splatters.

Gingham bow to complete.

Then

I used the same method

of stamping, so you get the detail, but colored

with my Copics.

I think I like the copics the best, but have
to admit that watercoloring is not my talent.

Thanks for stopping by today. 
 Have a great week.
