Oriental Odessy Card


This was done with Prima Watercolor Pencils and Gamisol. I then added some Stickles to the top of the dragonfly for some added oomph! All paper is from Hollo's and the stamp is from Innovative Stamp Creations, part of the Oriental Nature Elements set.

I stamped the image with my Palette Noir ink onto what cs. Then I used my colored pencils to color near the edges of the image parts I wanted colored. I colored all the image areas first then took to the image with the gamisol and my blending stump to work the color in. I started with my lightest color and then lightly sanded off the end of the blending stump between colors. I then decided to tear the image out to fit the top of my card. Mounting it onto blue then to black before adhering it to the light green cs base.

The ribbon is just a scrap of sheer white I had and thought went well to fill the bottom of the card in :)
