A warm welcome to the Stamp Basket! I have a card to show you today with a delicate floral theme and full of nostalgia! The image, ‘In the Meadow’, is one of the new stamps from the Wild Rose Studio ‘Annabelle’s Meadow’ Collection….I chose girly pinks from the co-ordinating range of floral papers…and punched the small flowers on the fence from the same paper.
Here’s a close up of the image coloured with copics.
The detail in these stamps actually makes the images very easy to colour and as always with Wild Rose Studio stamps, there is a ready coloured image with the packaging which provides an excellent template for shading, colour combos etc. But as I mentioned earlier in the week, the printed panel packs (the 4 stamp designs printed onto squares of 300gsm card) are excellent if you are short on time or don’t consider yourself to be a stamper…they're also, absolutely perfect, for groups of children to use to make quick and easy Mother’s Day cards!
The sentiment that I've used is from the new Wild Rose Studio ‘Circle Greeting’ set – a lovely, very useful range of sentiments for all occasions - which I’ve backed with a small scrap of paper from the Wild Rose Studio ‘Letters from Paris’ paper pack.
