Feb to Carole - Matisse

Hey, while we are appropriating ideas off Pinterest let's go for some of the Matisse envelopes. There are quite a few with these Warhol-esque flowers, stripes and dab-dots.

I used a Cocoiro marker which has a nice little brush tip. While I like blue and yellow, it was really hard to use this stamp on this envelope -- but there are no more yellows left in the stash.

This might have been the month I learned my lesson -- do not start any envelopes until you have the actual stamps in front of you.

Here is the inspiration envelope. It reminds me of etegami. We will be talking about etegami when I return from my trip. If you want to dive in ahead of time -- just Google etegami.
