supplies: white and smoke grey cardstock, (retired) Technique Tuesday Two Steppin' stamps, Altenew inks in Persian Blue, Deep Iris, and Puffy Heart, and Forest Glades, Simon Sending & Wishing sentiment, Sparkling Clear sequins
I don't think I've ever used a grey background, but it's a nice change, isn't it? This set includes an outline stamp plus a stamp that will add color to the inner petals of the flower. Since they were mounted against a grey background instead of my usual white, I wanted to color in the remainder of the petals. Because these Altenew inks are water-based, I was able to squiggle them on an acrylic block, spritz them with water, and use them to color in the outer petals.
I hope your week is off to a great start!
