hi there,
So happy I had a bit of time to play today because when I read the TLC challenge today I was intrigued as I had never done Sketched Stamping before and wanted to give it a try. This is a new flower I just bought and was playing around with and thought it would work perfectly for the challenge.
I faintly stamped it with grey ink then penciled in over the faint image adding details and shading. I added some Antique Linen sponging to the center and around the edges for interest. The framing is done in a dark chocolate cs...had trouble getting a good photo of that, it looked black.
Thank for looking,
