shades of one color...


The only way I could think of to accomplish this challenge was to watercolor.
But I didn’t want to use any of my normal ways.
The base card is black card stock.
The main piece is water color paper that I stamped with the image from Unity Stamp Co.’s “Donna poppies” using StazOn jet black ink.
The sentiment from Unity Stamp Co.’s “...girl truly” was stamped with the same ink.
To apply the color I used water, brush and a purple Lyra Aquacolor crayon.
