While I was playing around with black card and coloured pencils I made this card as well as the one I showed recently. This time I used another stamp from way back which has always been a favourite but again not used for a while. I used the same technique, stamping with Versamark and embossing with clear detail powder before colouring the image using coloured pencils. The panel was cut to a narrow width with opposing corners rounded before adding another layer behind cut in the same way. The sentiment was stamped directly onto the background paper - good old Misti aided the placement. Finally I wrapped some twine around the panel and used some scraps of card to die cut a short border which was backed with an even smaller scrap of patterned paper. The scrap was cut to width first using an edge die before cutting the trellis detail using a different die.
Stamp - Poppy seed heads from Chocolate Baroque
Paper - printed from Artylicious Essence of Nature CD
Sentiment - also from a Chocolate Baroque set of stamps
Border - Sue Wilson die for trellis and Stitched scallop edge die from Die-namics
Pencils - Polychromos
A gorgeous card Val, I love the colouring onto the black card.
