I stamped and coloured this image some time in the last couple of weeks. Time to use it up and get the stamp put away again. I was experimenting, so they were done two different ways.
The card on the left took longer - I wet my Inktense pencils and coloured the image one little bit at a time, building up the colour till it looked close to what I wanted. I added SN glitter pen to the ornaments, then trimmed out down, distressed the edges, masked the frame and sponged to add colour to the inside top part of the image. The base is a gel print on a book page from Polly. I added some stencilling through drywall mesh tape and the little flower from Banner Blast stamped in gold with a tiny gem in the centre of each. Then I used what was left of an alcohol background on Yupo to add a little extra framing interest.
For the card on the right, I simply stamped the image with a light grey ink, then coloured with Inktense pencils. It's finished off the same as the first one. This time the base is a cling-wrap background (Brushos and Brusho acrylic shimmer spray with spray starch), edged with a gold leafing pen. I had a lacy strip cut from patterned vellum sitting on my desk, so I added that.

Each card is beautiful in its own way, Sabrina - love how the image pops up with the bright colors on the left, and the classy elegance of the card on the right!
