Today we were to make something from Glenda Mosher's wonderful art gallery. I chose the spring tulip painting which is: http://glendamosher.blogspot.com/sea...&max-results=6
I started with Baroque Burgundy cs as the base. I sponged with Summer Sun, Only Orange and Baroque Burgundy ink all over the GP white cs. I then stamped itty bitty backgrounds with the Baroque Burgundy ink. I used various stem stamps from Springtime Stems and Watercolor Garden to stamp the stems and leaves with Old Olive ink. I then used Baroque Burgundy for the tulips, once on paper then on the stem. I went over again with the same ink but kept it darker. I then added a ribbon and tied a bow. This was a great challenge and it gave me the chance to bring out this old set.
Do you think I went overboard on the leaves?
