Every now and then I remember how much I enjoy coloring with soft chalks. They are a good alternative coloring method for digi stamps. I made something very soft and sweet with Power Poppy's Arranging Roses digi stamp. Thank you!

Yes you did! Leslie, I'm so behind in commenting that I'm embarrassed. This is so lovely and feminine. The dp almost looks like a soft cotton. That little bit of lace and beautiful ribbon frame your image beautifully.

Oh wow, so different from the other more vibrant coloring, and gorgeous in its own way. I lately have been playing with Pan Pastels, just barely starting, did some coloring on an inside of a card I made coloring a rose (Heartfelt Creations stamp). My coloring is very elementary in comparison to yours, I love how you've added such dimension with your background, beautifully shaded. Gorgeous ribbon adds to the softness. These cards show how versatile Power Poppy stamps can be--to create so many different styles and evoke different moods.
As always, stunning work--such amazing artistry always in your cards!
