CC338 Floral Story

Photo Details

Poster: BeckyTE

What a challenge these colors were!!! Karen is trying to drive us crazy!!!

I colored my flower is ColorBox chalk inks.
The background was made with my new Distress Stains. They are really fun to use. I had my doubts about them but after this first try I am sold!

Distress Stains: marmalade, rusty hinge, wild honey, aged mahogany, tattered rose, worn lipstick.

The mustard color around the focal image was sponged with Distress Wild Honey, Rusty Hinge and Vintage Photo.

Narrow panel was Tattered Rose and Pumice Stone Stain direct to the stamp.

Thanks for taking a look!
