Christine's Hibiscus



Hello, today I have a card with an image drawn by Christine Gray, this gorgeous hibiscus reminds me of a plant that we had in our garden in Wales. We inherited it with the garden, and for about 2 weeks each year it would be full of beautiful white blooms, very much like I have coloured here. It was beautiful.




The flower is coloured with promarkers, and then masked so that I could colour tint and stamp the background with Tim Holtz scattered straw ink, and his butterfly stamp. The music and swirl stamps in the background also are by Le Blanche.




You can click on Christine's link above to see more of the images that she has been drawing.



 I would like to enter this card also into challenge #102 on the Sunday Sketch and Stamp blog.

Thank you for taking the time to look.
