The image is one I did for Whimsy in a set called, Peace on Earth. Now this image of the branches is much larger than the actual stamp. I had to enlarge it when I was colouring it to use on the designer papers that Ann and I created. The stamp is 1.8 x 2.8 " but this one is around 3.75" big. The dp is one of Ann's and my creations as well, from the Holiday Folly Pack.
I coloured the image using Copics.
I must say though that I have to think twice about using Smooch Pearlized Top Coat on certain inks. Because it caused the black ink in the berries to smudge. boo. Live and learn.
This is the inside of the card. I used one of Ann's digital sentiments from the
"Christmas Sentiments" set. I brought it into Photoshop Elements 8 to add some colour to the design. I love being able to alter digis with colour using the computer! Its so fast and fun!
I'm entering this into the following challenges:
