This is for today's colour challenge: Certainly Celery, Blush Blossom, Close to Cocoa, Cameo Coral and Whisper White. I love the challenge of using lots of colours that I wouldn't normally use together - I don't tend to use Blush Blossom or Cameo Coral so this it was fun to dig out some unused stuff!
I used some Cameo Coral DSP from the retired Ginger Blossom pack and some Certainly Celery DSP from the Love Stories Simply Scrappin pack. I stamped the flower from Embrace Life on Blush Blossom cardstock with Close to Cocoa ink and added some shading with a Blush Blossom marker. I added some Cameo Coral dots too.
The leaves were stamped on Whisper White using Close to Cocoa and coloured with Certainly Celery marker. I cut out this layer with nesties and added a layer behind of Certainly Celery.
I finished this off with some pearls from the Pretties Kit and some Certainly Celery ribbon.
TFL!
