I love an anything goes challenge, which is what we have for you this week at ATSM. I pulled out my new Lilac stamp from Penny Black and used Calypso Coral, Old Olive and Rich Razzleberry (from CC&S's color challenge) to work on Challenge #286 at Addicted to Stamps & More.I know these aren't typical lilac colours, but the stamp's flower is versatile and doesn't need to be limited to lilacs. After using the three ink colors on watercolor paper, I went back in with an aqua painter and added a more color for a layered look. The leaves have some of the Calypso Coral and Rich Razzleberry mixed with Old Olive, which created the brownish color for the stems. The flowers popped when I added Rich Razzleberry to the coral blooms. A Lil Inkers die cut sentiment is inlaid. Not sure that I like where the sequins are placed, but the big one at the top is hiding a little splotch of green ink!! Oops!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card and the flowers are lovely this color! Love how you used the negative part for the sentiment to inlay it. Thanks for sharing with us at Cards in Envy.
ReplyDeleteThese blossoms are lovely! And to be honest, I think this card is more CAS than the one you used for your CC&S challenge card; this one has white/open space.
