Day 2 with Suzz

 On day 2 Suzz did a lovely backing paper so thought I would have a go.Using smoothy white stamping card I stamped the long script stamp from BG2 in smokey grey versafine ink, this is a nice soft colour. I then stamped the small postmark from vintage ID09...next step mini72 all in the grey versafine.


I then stamped the moth from HP 1109 all over and coloured lightly with water colour pencils.
Like Suzz I then cut off a piece of the card. On this I stamped the sentiment from HP1204 in black versafine...this ink pad gives a lovely crisp image, I edged it lightly also with the black versafine. I then put fom pads on the back to slightly raise it above the flower image,
I used HP1204 again to stamp the flower directly onto the backing card and lightly colored it. I gave all the images a slight shadow using a black water colour pencil...not sure if you can see it in the piccie.
Lastly I mounted it on black card to frame it and wrapped a piece of pink fibres around the bottom....
