I love this stamp from Julia Hawkins – Stamps Happen.  It is one of my oldest stamps but I have used it a lot.  This time I decided to use colouring pencil to add the colour only I managed to mix up my watercolour pencils with my Prisma pencils – DOH!  So when I tried to use my aqua brush on some segments I wondered why nothing was happening and on other segments I used both types expecting them to blend when I went over with the water.  Needless to say my colours didn’t come out quite how I imagined them to.  There is some sparkle in the flower heads but that doesn’t show in the photo.  I wiped the ink from 3 of the lines so that I could get the greeting in at the bottom of the image and just added black flat backed mini pearls to cover the tiny bits that still showed up.
