Hello. I did this for today's color challenge. Unfortunately I didn't have any of the colors except for elegant egg. (and I only have that in ink) I had some grape colored ink and paper from my local craft store. (crafts 2000). I tried to make my own melon colored paper and ink by stamping in pixie pink, stamping it off once, and then re-inking in orange. I used pixie pink paper and went over it with an orange ink pad. The stamps I used are simple stripes -SU!, noteworthy -SU!, and Island blossoms -SU!. I wanted to use something tropical because that is what those colors screamed at me. Or, maybe I'm just ready for the beach!LOL My accessories are ribbon, embossing folder, and tag made from spellbinders.
Thanks for looking.

I love the bg you created with embossing and ink, and you even got beautiful strips in there! Yes, these colors DO scream "tropical", and you've used them in a very pretty way!
