I feel as though I haven't been coloring enough lately, especially flowers, but that is going to change. I've colored my Power Poppy Amaryllis Bliss today, no longer available as a stamp, but the digi, simply called Amaryllis, can be found here. Such a pretty thing!
For a no-line result I stamped the flowers in Memento Rosebud and colored with Copics, then carefully hand cut. I placed the flowers face down on a foam pad and ran my blunt stylus over them to shape. Stamped the evergreen foliage onto a half oval and added that to the embossed panel. Mounted the flowers with thin foam tape. That's the quickie version.
I like the cute little Poppystamps sentiment banner.
When all was said and done I added Stickles Stardust glitter glue to the petal edges so I could play along in The Flower Challenge and, of course, I couldn't resist the gorgeous Triple B mood board.

I really appreciate your visit today. I've fallen behind but I'll catch up. Merriest wishes!

ABSOLUTELY wonderful. Love the flower and the coloring is fabulous. And adding the 3D dimension to it just makes it pop. Beautiful. We're getting into Brrrrr weather for the next several days. Ugh!!
Leslie, I'm so happy to see your gorgeous coloring again! You DO have a wonderful way with 'no-line', my friend! These gorgeous Amaryllis are popping right off my screen! SO beautiful perched above the embossed panel.
