Well, I was honoured beyond belief to be asked to be a guest designer on the Colour Challenge team for March! This week, Mary gave us Primrose Petals, Raspberry Ripple, and Bashful Blue, with dessert being a spring theme. Not having Primrose or Raspberry, I had to improvise a little and used some colour mixing with markers scribbled on acetate and picked up with blender pens to approximate the right colours. Of course I had to cheat a bit and used some green for the leaves.
I used some Rose Red ribbon, which is just a shade darker than Primrose Petals, and sponged the edges of the sentiment flag with Bashful Blue.
This is a larger size of card than I usuall make, 4 3/4" x 6 1/2". I had to go big so I could do something other than the usual square card I make with this stamp.
