Using an old wooden block stamp by Stampendous I stamped the image. It was coloured using a combination of pencils and some shimmery watercolours. It also has a touch of glitter sparkle here and there. The die cut frames are from Paper Rose and is called Stitched rectangle frames. After I had die cut them I brushed some shabby shutter distress ink to take away the stark white. The smaller frame is several layers so there is a tiny bit of dimension to it. The image and the outer frame are flat. I had some left over pieces from an intricate border frame bought in Holland so I added those leaves to each bottom corner. Fussy cut the sentiment which is from GKD.
Such grace and elegance. Has that wow factor with the shimmer. Got to love red stamps.

I find it interesting to use a very old stamp because I can remember buying it and then not really knowing what to do with it. Its amazing to realize just how far I have come from when I started. Thanks Gayle.

Before learning how to colour, or having die cutting available, I can remember yearning to be able to create something like this. 20 odd years of playing has given me many ideas of how to use some of my older stamps.
