A friend graciously shared her delicious tomato bounty with me, so I wanted to make her a special thank you card. Since finding this cool corn stamp from Impression Obsession, I've been on the lookout for Leigh Hannan's tomato art. I finally found it on our Chicago Stamp Store trip. I combined it with Kazan's Sketch #33 from 2 Sketches 4 You. I flipped the sketch on its side to work with my image.
I stamped the image on watercolor paper and clear embossed. I had fun painting with Red Pepper Color Wash and Moss Green Twinkling H20 paint. The clear embossing helps keep the paint and ink from bleeding. The papers are from Basic Grey's Offbeat and Cupcake Collections. I think the sentiment is an old one from The Angel Company.
Enjoy the weekend.
really lovely card.I love the papers you have used
Great colouring Stef. What a cute idea for the card.

so cute! love the tomatoes!
I love the theme and the wavy red panel. Very cute and I’m sure your friend will love it!
I just wanted to add that I love the quote of the week this week. I’m a huge fan of Tori Amos and she often spouts stuff like this. She’s quite brilliant. 🙂
This card is excellent, love the veggies! And I agree with Ryann’s post, that Tori Amos quote is great.
this is so my kind of card – love the black! and your choice of papers too. Thanks for playing
🙂 Kazan
