Spectrum Noir #1


I recently purchased some Spectrum Noir pens and decided to try them out with the "Floral Garden" for Colorists book from HOTP.  I colored a page that had 6 little floral pieces and a couple of borders and used them to make two cards.  This is the first.

CARD FRONT:

Background - The background is an old HOTP piece of patterned paper that I cut slightly smaller than the card front.  I inked the edges & added a ribbon border before gluing it to the card front.

Flowers - colored with "Lilac" and "Lavender" pens (which clearly are more on the pink side!)

Sentiment - This was another piece from the same Colorists book that I colored & stamped using a stamp from a HOTP stamp set called "Tiny Words & Images".

INSIDE:   


As you can see, the inside has more of the background paper & one more of the floral pieces.
