Every now and again I like to get back to basics and get my colouring pencils out. I love this Gothic Gateway door stamp from Creative Expressions. People may already know I have a thing about old doors, as I've mentioned before in previous posts.
In my own little fantasy world I thought of beautiful hanging Wisteria flowers around the door, but I didn't have a stamp so I just drew them on. I adore the colour against the kraft card.
I've used Prisma Colour pencils, they have very yummy high pigmentation hence the vivid colour, they're a bit pricey but worth it.
I started with the stamp and just a brown pencil
Added some highlight from a white pencil
I drew some branches, and then just coloured in lots of foliage and the flowers.
I love the blue and the purple together, against the door.
I know who I'd like to give this to :)
The sentiment is from the Beaded Swirl set from Creative Expressions too.
The weekend is nearly here, and it looks like it's going to be a sunny one, I hope so, I still have so much to do!
Have a good one.
