Hi, Ingrid. I used some re-inkers and my stamp press and “smooshed” onto some watercolor paper. Yes, I picked some holly from our yard, did a little tracing, then sketching and water-coloring. I have not drawn very much for a long time, but I did enjoy doing it. I’d like to try to draw & paint more. 🙂
