This time I went with fruit and I thought red grapes would be perfect as that had lots of the colors one would find in a bunch of grapes, This image is from Gina K. Designs and is called Better With Age and is part of the duo set by that name.
Again I stamped the image with Gina K. Designs black ink and then colored it in with Tim Holtz Distrress markers. I also took some bleach and here and there lightened up the grapes and also added a bit of white gel marker so that they looked like they had depth more to them with a light hitting concept. By layering the finished project onto some Gina K. Designs Cranberry Tart paper and then onto the Prickley Pear base card along with some gold trim I think I again got a great look.
Boy! I am having a blast. Ooops! Almost time to fix the evening meal so I better put my toys away for today.
I am entering this card into the Mod Squad Challenge for this week which calls for us to use fruit.
Everyone have an amazing evening,
God bless,
Verna

Masterpiece! This should be framed and sold to the highest bidder! Or at least hung on your dining room wall. How sumptuous these colors are - well done, Verna!
I agree with every word Rosy said! This is gorgeous and you have coloured it perfectly. You did a great job with the Bisters!!
This is great, Verna! Those grapes really have a 3-D effect. I feel like I could reach out and pick one. Beautiful card!
These cards are amazing!! Yours are the first using this product that I have seen anywhere! I don't have time for the video right now, but am going to watch it soon. Thanks for sharing!
Another beauty, Verna
Just amazing, how the grapes have the texture and look so real. Can't wait to see what else you come up with.
Verna love your card. Beautiful. Never heard of blisters before but looks like fun! Hope you are well and taking care of that beautiful grand baby.
Verna, this is GORGEOUS! The grapes look so life-like that you could pluck them off the paper. I don't know what BISTERS are but will find out. Great job!!!
You are just having too much fun. i love this creation and agree you should frame it. Your grapes are fabulous as is the background.

Stunning card Verna! It is definitely a work of art!
I just have learned about the water color crystals - I MUST have them. Your card is gorgeous!!!!
Stunning. I haven't heard of Blisters either...off to check it out
Verna, were you able to stamp and color right over your background or did you remove the color first? I just ordered. Pretty reasonable price too.
Wonderful Verna and it's fun if you have a suprice backround.
