Funky Flowers

 Good morning, there's a new challenge at FAB 'n' FUNKY, 

Pat K, our lovely host for this fortnight, has chosen the theme of

 MONOCHROMATIC 

(shades of one colour)

I love the look of monochromatic designs, there's something so 'together' about them! I  chose to use brown tones and several floral stamps from different companies. 

First I smooshed the background with D. Oxides and added some stencilled leaves and grasses along the bottom edge. I stamped the funky flowers (Hobby Art) stems and leaves  using brown Versafine Clair and coloured them with watercolour markers, adding some details with a white gel pen, masked them where necessary to add the swirl stamps ( a company called Autumn Leaves) and second generation stamping of some TH silhouette stamps to fill the spaces.  The little bees are from Lavinia. I doodled the border to finish.

There are loads of the Hobby Art  and Autumn Leaves stamps still uninked although both sets are far from new so I'm planning to make similar cards in different colours. One day.

There's more to see over at Fab'n' Funky from my lovely teamies and we'd be delighted to have you play along 

Thanks for visiting.
