Project # 266 of this year MFPS June #13 |
- A2 size card 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"
- Welcome Poppies stamp used from Mark's Finest Papers & Stamps - click here to shop
- Image and sentiment from the Welcome Poppies stamp set
- Image colored with chalks
- I stamped the image very lightly with a brown suede ink. I didn't want sharp, black lines, but rather more of a soft feel to this image.
- It's hard to tell by this photo, but the image background is also lightly chalked with sunrise/sunset shades with a pink / lavender hue.
