The Color Throwdown #298...

 

Hello! It's time for The Color Throwdown challenge. Check out the beautiful new colors by little ol' me:

   
    
  ... and here is my take on the color challenge:

  

 Here it is... Stippled Blossoms again... LOVE it so much!

I added Early Espresso to accent the leaves and to stamp the greeting... but I think that's acceptable, don't you think?

The sketch came from Craft Project Central, Creating Pretty Cards
Sketch Challenge #36. Check it out. There's a new sketch every month.

I water colored the thin white panel with Crumb Cake then splashed water on top... I did the same with the Crumb Cake background paper... except I swiped it with the ink pad, then splashed some water on top... that didn't really work... next time I have to add more ink so the water drops show up...

Thanks for stopping by,
