I've never attempted a tutorial before, but this one is kind of easy so I thought I would give it a go. The background grass stamp is from Stampin' Up. The Maggie is a very early attempt at coloring - not my best effort, but the grass in the background turned out very well. The grass stamp was inked up with moss green ink. Using a brush marker with a contrasting color of ink, tap horizontally on the grass stamp. You can see the lines left to right on the grass. Hold the brush marker like a drummer holds his drum stick and tap the grass as little or as much as you like with as many different colors as you like. Then, huff (hold the stamp close to your mouth and breathe on it) to remoisten the stamp. Stamp your image. This technique isn't hard but it does take a little practice and lends authenticity to floral images.
You did an amazing job on the grass! It makes such a unique background! too cute!
