Summer Flowers

Hi!  I am here to share some art using the new Darkroom Door rubber stamp set Warm Wishes!  I was lucky enough to receive this wonderful set form Darkroom Door.  I couldn't wait to ink up the flowers as they have me thinking of warm summer days with the flowers in bloom.

I played with stamping these flowers with a variety of colors and decided to cut out a bouquet.  I inked up the flower with an archival ink.  Because of the way the flowers are structured it was easy to ink the petals with one color and the stem and the leaves with another.

I stamped the background with a new sentiment stamp to give it a pretty background.

The cutting out took a few minutes but well worth the effect!

Next up a bookmark with one of the beautiful flowers and the same sentiment strip. 

 I read quite a bit and like to have a bookmark handy to stick into the book to keep my place for the next time I can grab a few minutes to read. 

This was a quick create because I stamped the background with a pale yellow.  I then stamped the flower with black archival ink.

I finished with some watercolor pencils to add a hint of color in and around the flower. 

For my last card I used old ledger paper as my background for the card.

I stamped the various pieces using black archival ink and colored the flowers with a hint of watercolor using pencils and a waterbrush.

I am in love with these lovely flowers. 

Thanks for stopping by!
