RBC06 Happiness Blossoms

This is for Jeannes Rubbernecker Blogger Challenge. The colors this week are Pink, Red & Grey. Asian came to mind first when I saw the colors. Images and inks are available from
The polished stone background was created with Adirondack Alcohol Inks in Red Pepper and Pearl Mixative. The Plum Blossom branch was inked with Stazon Jet Black that was stamped off on scrap paper once before stamping the images on the layer. The blossoms were highlighted using a Q-Tip & Tim Holtz Fired Brick distress ink. The Primas were dyed using Adirondack Red Pepper ink and Tim Holtz Black Soot reinker. When dry, I edged them with a Sakura Stardust Gel Pen. The Grey Taffeta is done with a Japanese Stab Binding technique. (click to go to the tutorial) Cardstock is Prism: Baby Light Pink, Rose Medium & Stormy Night.
