Now, I am mostly a weekend stamper, so I generally "squeek" in on the House Mouse Monday Challenge. I love to color and most HM stamps are pretty much all coloring and don't really require much else going on with the rest of the card. I think their images most definitely take center stage. The challenge this week is SPRINGTIME and what could be more spring like than lilacs?I colored this image with copics as well as prisma's/oms.
Oh I can see why this stamp was named Aromatherapy! I can just smell the lilacs outside! (a big sniff here LOL)
