I pulled out another one of my Rachel Anne Miller stamps today - actually the last one as I only own three of them right now!! I want TONS more but I need to space my purchases apart! I've had these ones for more than a couple of months anyway so that gives y'all an idea of how long things can sit before I actually get around to using them.
This is theLily & Milo Rainy Days stamp. I'm still in a Valentine color combo mood so I went with pinks browns and reds to color in the image.
I used all these Copics to color it all in then cut the image out with one of my rectangle nestabilities dies. Instead of matting the image I just embossed the die to get the frame around the image.
LOL I went a little crazy with the Stardust stickles here - I couldn't stop myself!!
I started by just adding a little here and there and next thing you know I had the entire umbrella covered.
That's another reason why I love my Copics though - if I had used dye-based inks to color in the image there's a good chance the color would have run and/or smeared after adding all that glitter glue. With Copics that's never a problem :o)
I kept the inside really simple - just basically mimicking the layout used on the front, and stamping the "Love" that I also had stamped on the front. That stamp is from my Love Sentiments set.
The buttons are Basic Grey Bittersweet buttons - they look almost black in the pictures - in real life they're a REALLY dark brown.
Ribbon is May Arts satin.
That's it for today!! :o)
