Well its time for me to blog my entry for this months Claritystamp challenge. I decided that I really wanted to take this opportunity to capture a real psychedelic Sixties flower power vibe.
My first step was to cut out a mask from copy paper. I stamped the large Gerbera through the mask using Black Soot Distress Ink.
Next step was to doodle borders with a black micron pen and add the sentiment.
Now for the transformation. I coloured in the gerberas with promarkers in vibrant shades of pink, yellow, orange, green, blue and lilac. Hope you have your sunglasses ready!
To finish, I just mounted it very simply onto black and pink, then added a yellow flower button. Groovy baby!!!
I'd love to know what you think, so I'd really appreciate it if you left a comment. Thanks for looking. Till next time. Xxx
