Hello!! Stopping in with another card I made using a Concord & 9th stamp set and my Prisma color pencils. This time I used the beautiful Lily stamp set. I stamped the lily on Bristol cardstock with VersaFine Vintage Sepia ink. Once that was done I googled what different lilies looked like and decided to try to color up a tiger lily. Like most lily varieties tiger lilies come in different colors including red with touches of orange. I used three shades of red and a yellow orange for my flower. Once I was done I simply die cut the image with a rectangle die, stamped the sentiment (also from the Lily stamp set) and then added a strip of black cardstock along one side before adhering everything to a red cardstock base. A few tiny cold sequins finished things off. I also finished the inside of the card with a simple partial image of the lily and then the sentiment "Happy Birthday" from the Concord & 9th Butterfly Beauty set. I pretty pleased with my coloring on this one, but I know I still have much to leave to achieve more depth of color. Going to add this to the current Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge to make a birthday card.
Wishing you a wonderful day...
