MIM ~ Doodling with Stamps

A new MIM with a video from Ashley over at
Capture the Moment

I used Beautiful Brushstrokes and stamped the first two layers of the flowers, then I added my lines with a pen...getting sketchy...a little tricky for me!  Ha I am not the artistic type...maybe I need to practice this some more!  I do like the look a lot and Ashley's was really pretty.
Thanks for taking a look..

Partners in crime--I just saw what Lin linked up. Yours is really lovely too. I see that you masked some of your flowers as well as doodled--It looks great.

You "doodle" just beautifully Colleen! And that stamp set was a perfect one to use! A very pretty and colorful card!! :0)

Hi Colleen! This is absolutely beautiful, and you did an amazing job with this technique. I wanted to let you know that the challenge this month at V's Sweet Ideas is a water color theme, and this card would be SO perfect for that challenge as well. I hope that you will stop by and link up with us. It's just lovely!
Blessings,
Karen

This is fabulous! I love how you choose to place and color your flowers. I think your doodling is great; it is so much better than mine. I think I need some more practice.

Maria said...

Very pretty! Love the big blooms and doodling! Wonderful design, too!

Looks like you are an artist here Colleen. This turned out gorgeous and you used a perfect stamp set!
I am so sorry I forgot to send those few items out AND you birthday! I was busy getting my 12 kits out and then I lost lots of emails. Sorry!

I'd hate to see if you were the artistic type because this is awesome. Great choice of colors and masking on your masterpiece, Colleen!
