Misti's Summer Garden CAS challenge had me searching my images for lilies. My yard is just bursting with lilies of all different colors and it's awesome! I decided I wanted to use this image that I have never used before, but wasn't sure how I wanted to color it. That's where Judy's TLC Challenge came in. You know I will never use my brayer unless specifically challenged to do so, but I was intrigued by the tip to use a multi-colored ink pad and let it do the work for you. So I got out my Kaleidacolor ink pad, which I also never use and brayered the color onto my masked off image. Magic! I really like it! Then I colored the flowers with colored pencils to make them pop a bit and added some detail in white gel pen. It's a rare OLC for me. Thanks for two fun challenges, Ladies!

Very pretty! Gotta love the braver and rainbow pad combo...it does so much work for you and so quickly!

And a fantastic bright and bold OLW! The bits of white detailing the flowers 'bits and baubles' are the perfect finishing touch. You should be proud...Great OLW's are possible!
