This card didn't quite come out as I imagined but the general concept is there. I stamped the bells from Bells & Boughs onto Neenah Solar White and colored with Copics. I have to say, that I must be doing something wrong, because the colors bled something awful which I've never had when I've colored onto Whisper White. On the card base, I masked a rectangle and sponged Pool Party ink, leaving the right hand side "unfinished". The sentiment is an old Printworks Australia stamp I have.
Thanks for looking.
