Sweet Stamps Challenge- Think Spring!

 The challenge at Sweet Stamps this week is to 'Think Spring'. I used this gorgeous Floral Arrangement stamp-I stamped and embossed it on Watercolor paper and used watercolor crayons to color it.

  I used Authentique DSP called Genuine and was inspired by the blue/yellow colors to watercolor my image. I used Black embossing powder using Ranger embossing Ink. After watercoloring, I added a  light grey layer and shadowing around the image that is hard to see in the picture.

  I used Raw Sienna Creative Inspirations Paint to color the Cheery Lynn Italian Doily Die behind the image, the butterfly die- also Cheery Lynn and the Seam Binding. I colored the rhinestones with Copic YR24 from the Harvest Gold set. I added the Cheery Lynn Dancing Doily Border Edge in Navy under the seam binding. I used to sew alot- this border looks like tatting to me- I LOVE it!!!

 I hope you will join in!  Each entry qualifies you for a chance to win $20 of items from the store at  SweetStamps, and if you use a Sweet Stamps image- you will receive an additional chance to win!
