I really have been digging out the old stamps this weekend! This is one of my oldest, the date on it is 1998. It's a Stampendous stamp called Rose Ring.
I used Nesties to cut it out and coloured it with watercolour pencils - for the larger flowers and the leaves, where I wanted to blend the colours, I coloured in with the pencils and then blended with a water brush, and for the tiny flowers I used the water brush to pick up colour from the tips of the pencils.
I am sharing this with

What a fabulous CAS card! I like the way you've cut a ring with the sentiment peeping out: so simple but so stylish. Your colouring is lovely too. It can be difficult to get those tiny flowers so vibrant, so your trick with the brush is a good one. Thanks for sharing your card and joining us at Retro Rubber.

Beautiful design, Jane! Love how you've created the ring with your die-cuts to highlight your doubled stamped image that created the perfect spring wreath. Very creative and pretty!! Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Watercolour!
So pretty, reminds me of a fine china plate. Great coloring! Thank you so much for doing the RR challenge!
Another beautiful card. I agree with Christine, it feels like a beautiful china plate. Thanks for playing at Retro Rubber again. Claire DT

Your rose ring is so pretty and beautifully coloured, Christine. Your stamp maybe old, but you have given it a fresh modern look with your CAS design. TFS and joining us at CAS Watercolour. Hugs..
