Power Poppy Roses in Pink

I tried merging two digi stamps together for the Power Poppy Challenge this month "Mix and Match." I used Rose and Chamomile and the Let It Be stamps and liked the combo but wanted to do a little nudging of the flower placement, so I tried it again.
This time I'm using pinks for the flowers instead of purples. I used copper corner stickers to frame the sentiment and Prismacolor pencils to color the image. I do like the right-hand flower lower better (like in the pink version), but maybe I should move it a little more to the right for balance. Ah well, I'm not a professional stamp designer! :)

Which do you like better? The pink/yellow or blue/purple?

I'm entering the pink/yellow in the challenge too...hope you'll join in here. I love their intricate but easy-to-color flowers at Power Poppy...and you can pick up a freebie over at their shop too!

Happy Wednesday!

Let It Be

I'm a huge Beatles fan and when I saw the Let It Be digi stamp at Power Poppy, I knew I needed it...and I was so happy to learn it was FREE! So I snapped it up when getting some other digis. For their challenge this month, you're supposed to mix and match 2 stamps. I took a rose stamp from them (also a digi) and the Let It Be stamp and combined them.

I took the rose image, converted it to line art with no background in CorelDraw and then added the roses to the word art. After printing, I colored with Prismacolor pencils and mounted it on colored paper. The corners are copper metallic stickers. Love the classy touch. It's hard to see the shine on them, but it is pretty irl.

I saw a video where the artist used black pencil to darken her images and tried it here. It actually worked fine and I like how the flowers pop. I added some white Prismacolor pencil after all the purples, but I also left some parts of the flowers almost white.

I'm entering this in the challenge here...join in if you're feeling it! You have all month to enter.

Thought I'd take a moment and let you know there's a new challenge blog starting up called Mini Album Makers. I love mini albums, though I only have about 4, but I'm excited to see the new blog. If you pop over and follow them, you can be entered to win.

Happy Monday!
