Retrorubber Challenge #65 Meets Nuvo Glitter Markers

Today I'm entering a sketch challenge at Retro Rubber Challenge where they love the use of older stamps.



One of the requirements of the Retrorubber Challenge is to use a stamp that is older than one year so I took out one of my all time favorite background stamps by Close to My Heart called Garden Tapestry.  This stamp is probably 20 or more years old and still a delight to use.  One of the nice things about red rubber stamps is that you can color them with water based markers.  I tried out my latest purchase of Nuvo Glitter Markers and love the sparkle they create without any mess.  I purchased these at Technique Junkies who shipped them right away.




Products used:
     Garden Tapestry stamp--retired Close to My Heart

     White Daisy CS

That's a lovely colour combination. I like that you've put the emphasis on the bottom section of the sketch. Colouring the stamp with markers is such a lovely technique and you can never be quite certain of the result and a bit of serendipity is a good way to pep things up. Thanks for joining us at Retro Rubber.

I enjoy coloring directly on my stamps, and the Nuvo pens are new to me. The color scheme is so pretty. Great interpretation of the sketch, thanks for playing along with Retro Rubber!
