 Yellow and Grey.... I like the color combo... but had to think about what to do! I pulled this Welcome Knocker stamp out and inked it up. It was obviously a pretty quick and simple color job with a few Copics!

  I used Spellbinder's Labels 18 to cut out the image. I left it in the die to airbrush a little Y13 around the    outside. I then used the nestie edge as a guide to add the piercing. 

 While I stamped the image in Memento Black, I used Memento London Fog ink to stamp the Ticking Background on the yellow pattern paper. I always have to remind myself that stamping on pattern paper is easy and makes it interesting. 

A few Warm Grey Copics to add some color. I hand cut the black and grey layers.

My last step was to add Crackle Accents over the knocker to give it a little shine and texture. Finished card is an A2.
