Sketch Saturday & Summer Milly





My entry for this weeks Sketch Saturday using the new Summer Milly stamp from Pink Gem Designs. She is one of 9 new releases and as you can see she is quite a large stamp. She is cut on the largest oval Nestie and her head is just peeping over the top!
You will need a large acrylic block to use with Summer Milly and quite a few of the other Pink Gem Design stamps which are of a good size. We now sell these on the website and they measure 100mm X 150mm (approx 4x6 inches). All the blocks have finger grooves running down the side for an easy grip. We stock the medium size too.
Milly has been coloured with Koh-i-noor pencils and blended with Sansador & paper stumps. I used a beige Prisma for the skin

Beautiful card, you are so great at showcasing your stamps. Love the way your stamps are so clear cut and great value for money, I like a fairy big stamp to work with.
