Henna Patterns-Take 4

Hello friends! The
 STAMPtember release from Simon Says Stamp has so many awesome products.
One of them stood out to me was "Henna Patterns.

I have come up with a few cards with one of my favorites from this release.
Here is my first take on this stamp set with a video (don't forget to subscribe to my YT channel).

This is my 4th version with this stamp. The patterns seem to look a bit more complicated, but it really is not. With the help of MISTI, I can precisely stamp the intricate patterns without messing it up.

I love watercoloring with this stamp because of the tiny spaces in each stamp. I started out in the middle and anchored each piece with MISTI as I stamped. Distress Inks were used for all the stamping and coloring.

I decided to add my gold strings a little differently this time. For a change, I didn't think this card needs sequins. After all the coloring, I think it's nice to keep it "simple". The card is not perfectly symmetrical (if you look closely), but that's what makes "handmade" special, right?

I am sharing the last three versions.

The "Henna Patterns" is definitely versatile. It is one of those stamps that I can always find new ways or patterns to create. The possibilities are endless.
