New Challenge at Inkspirational!

Hi friends!

We have a new challenge at Inkspirational and it's something I really like! 

I've been practicing on my coloring skills lately: I've tried to learn the marker coloring style where you leave the brush nib strokes visible and don't blend the colors together. I think I tried this the first time already 5 years ago (or something!) and I've kept coming back to it every now and then because I so admire the textured look... But I've never liked the way my strokes look like!! About two weeks ago I decided it's now finally time to learn the thing and not to just be intimidated... And this is the first outcome I feel confident enough to share! I used Altenew markers for coloring and a little bit of white gel pen and white and gold paint to add final accents. 

The amazing image is a Power Poppy digital stamp that is FREE (wow!!) in their shop HERE. They have amazing digis in their store... I'm very tempted!! After the background was ready I was so relieved I just grabbed a sentiment stamp I had near me on my table (by Create a Smile) and stamped it... It totally vanishes into the background... So I tried to salvage it with die cutting three fishtail shapes (by MFT) around it, popping the two inner ones up. Don't love it but oh well, at least most of the flowers look nice! :) 

Please head on over to our blog to have a look at all the DT inspiration and challenge details. Thanks for popping by and happy crafting!
