This is for today's COLOR CHALLENGE # 282 - Blushing Riding Expresso. I had to use some substitutes until my order comes today or tomorrow, grrr. My layout is from Monday's TECHNO STAMPERS SKETCH CHALLENGE # 133. I also had to do another one of Monday's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE # 284 - Plaid Silhouettes as this is just the kewlest one for these type of stamps. I hate not getting a good impression on a solid image and typically use my copics to fill in where the impression is lacking so this TLC was appealing to my "lack" of crafty abilities and I love the way this flower and these leaves turned out. I inked my flower image with pink pirouette then tapped the edges of riding hood red in one direction and choc chip from another. I did the same with the leaves using certainly celery and old olive. I added some dessert from todays color challenge - something new to me is my brand new Fiskars border punch. I love it. It is simular to one I wanted from somewhere else but a lot easier to get my hands on. LOL.
