When I saw these floral stamp sets I knew that I will make a kraft card like this. These images are really beautiful and they are so pretty in B&W too, even if you don't add color.

  • When it's done shade the images around with pencils.

  • The next step is the stippling. Add little dots around your colored image. I used 005, 05 and 1 thick black liners.
