Freshly Made Sketches #320

If you don't follow Instagram, you may not have seen [or heard my squeal of joy] my first attempt at coloring the glorious Gerberas from Uniko!  Here is where one of those darling blooms was 'planted' - at FMS320!  Kim, thanks for allowing 'any shape!'


All of the outline stamps from the set were stamped in Versamark onto a gorgeous gray toned paper from Strathmore, and heat embossed in white.  Then my inner-Yanna took over ... Prisma-coloring, baby!


After sharing this on IG, I had so many friends give me kudos for this design ... that little hole?  a bit of serendipity if you ask me ... it was already cut out of the snippet of Neenah I used to stamp my sentiment [from E.H.'s Baker Lady].  

I cannot wait to show my next daisy ... but you'll have to wait until next week!  Please come back?

  7. Oh Michele, you're so darn clever! I would have cut that circle off and kicked myself after seeing how you embraced using it. Your sparkly daisy is pure perfection and just lovely in it's little circle enclosure. You blow my mind with your cleverness Michele! Gaaaa... when can we finally meet so maybe your creativity will rub off on me??

    Seriously, the flower looks so vibrant and beautiful, outlined in white! I also love that you tucked the flower into the cut-out circle! Hideko :-)

  10. The coloring came out so rich and vibrant, Michele, especially for being on gray paper. (Now where did I put the sheets you gave me?) The Gerbera reminds me of my granddaughter's wedding. That was her flower only a little more coral-y.
