Faux Brush Lettering



Hello friends !
Amy shared a neat video, with a new way to make brush lettering. 


Ok, first I did the brush lettering on the stamped “happy “ then decided to do the same thing on the 
Happy die and I like the way that one turned out better.
I masked off my panel then did some shading and used the same color ink and a stencil from the
 Color Pops kit. The technique was from a previous MIM.  #241: Ombre Stenciled Backgrounds.
  My flowers are cut from watercolored  paper I made with my Zeg pens.

Thank you very much for the visit today! I hope your day is wonderful!
