I printed the image at full original size and used the Cross messages die set to cut it out.  I used some scallop circle dies behind the center.  The patterned paper is included in the color digital set and I printed on regular paper.

Clearly iStamp Challenge 23

Hello!

Today is the Clearly iStamp Challenge 23!    It's a color challenge, soft mint, porcelain pink and white (or cream).

I had trouble photographing my project. I tried different lights and also adjusting the photo in my photo editing program, but it just sort of looks blueish in the background to me, but it is supposed to be white.

It sure is soft and pretty in person.  Hope you can at least imagine it.

I used the New Butterfly digital image over at Clear Dollar Stamps.   I printed it on Canson 90 lb. watercolor paper. I watercolored the image with Tombow markers and a waterbrush on watercolor paper.

SUPPLIES:

• IMAGES: New Butterfly Digital at CDS
• CS/PAPER: 90 lb. watercolor paper, white, CDS pretty porcelain, CDS soft mint, CDS sweet cheeks, MME penny lane tiny pink flowers DP, Fancypants Road show shabby floral DP
• INK: printer, Tombow markers 992, 020, 192, 243, 800, 772
• ACCENTS/TOOLS: waterbrush, spellbinders circles dies, fancy tags die, pearls, SU mini flower punch, EK medium rock fern punch, daisy punch, sewing machine, EK border punches, CDS soft mint ribbon, SU dimensionals, glue dots
• COLORING: watercolor with markers and waterbrush on watercolor paper
