Hero Arts 45th Anniversary - Card 1 - Buds

When I took the photo of my early Hero Arts stamps, it made me want to ink them up again.  So I'll be using some "golden oldie" stamps but in new ways.

Here is my CAS, one-layer card ... using masking techniques and Copics for colouring, with some doodled dots ...

  4. WOW ! This is fabulous, Janet ! Those buds are beautiful and I love how they are falling down from the top of the card. Your grey "demarcation" is just so well done that I first sight I thought it was the edge of the card top flap. What a beautiful way to add dimension on a OLC ! And you even made a stunning recovery with this second card. Thanks so much for sharing and for playing along at Less is More.
