Chris is our hostess in the Color Challenge this week, and she almost stumped me with her colors: Poppy Parade, Bumblebee and Soft Succulent. The dessert option is dry embossing.
I'm so glad I thought of this older set, Garden Collage. The three elements in the design lend themselves perfectly to these colors, so I went with that stamp. Bonus, my new Foliage embossing folder, probably my favorite ever EF, coordinates perfectly with this image! I colored the butterfly and flowers with Copic markers and then added details with colored pencils. For the sentiment, I chose a greeting from my booklet of Small Talk Stickers.
These warm, summery colors are just waiting for you to create something beautiful with them. Have fun!

Barbara.......your card pops right off the screen. It is so pretty. You colored your image so nicely and the embossing folder is beautiful. I like how you have framed so many aspects of your card with the red card stock.
Thanks for the nice comment you left on my card too.
