I had to do another one for the color challenge, this time using Taken with Teal instead of Tempting Turquoise. I didn't use any black cardstock on this one either and I think maybe I should have, but I'm pretty happy with it overall. I did thumping on the background--I inked up the background stamp with Green Galore ink, then used a TWT marker and thumped it all over the stamp to get the multiple colors on the stamp. My only regret is that I covered up so much of it with the Bella!
Bella is stamped with Versafine black and colored with SU markers. That big empty space under her legs just bugged me so that's why I added in the flower...couldn't decide on a brad color for the center of the flower so I just left it alone.
