Black-eyed Susans

 

Is anyone else ready for Spring?  It is cold today, and I wanted to make a card that was bright and cheerful. 

For the card above, I stamped the Black-eyed Susan (E422) multiple times onto the new 12" x 12" Sugardrop paper called "Bubblegum."  I thought the muted tones of the Bubblegum paper was more interesting than stamping on white or cream cardstock without taking any focus away from the flowers.  I then colored the flowers with three shades of Prismacolor pencils, added a thank you saying (B1055)in black ink, and layered everything onto a Gourd colored notecard.

Here is a close up of the flowers so that you can see the various shades of pencils:

Gorgeous!! Yes I love the paper you stamped on, you're right it is more interesting than just white or cream.

than white or cream.
