Have a Sunflower Day!

I love how the navy cardstock sets off the sunflower image from Flowers & Holly. Simple, classic colors suit this classic image. Prismacolor pencils and goo gone are the coloring medium. Dew drops finish off the versamark swirlies on the kraft cardstock.

*One tip for this coloring technique - you need a higher quality paper like white ultrasmooth cardstock. It will just chew up a lightweight cardstock. But, I love this technique because it does the shading for me and makes me feel like an artist. :)

Happy Stamping!
