Burst of Colors

Happy Thursday! Today I want to show you another creation I made as a Prickley Pear Rubber Stamps GD. I made a CAS style card using the 'Chicks With Hat' image. The image was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto XPress it card. I colored using Graph' It markers and Copics. The sentiment I've added on the side is also from Prickley Pear and you can get it here . For a little embellishment I doodled around the image, added some Ice Stickles to the flowers and added a grossgrain ribbon. here's a close-up on the image: and a view from a different angle: Have a wonderful day and thanks for visiting!

Hello Everyone! Here's my Prickley Pear Rubber Stamps GD creation for this week. I made a shabby chic style tag using a butterfly image and sentiment from the Dragonflies 2 clear stamp set.
