Watercooler Wednesday Challenges #75

This week at Watercooler Wednesday Challenges, Deborah has given us a wonderful sketch to inspire our creativity.   When I first saw the Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper, I fell in love with it.  Night of Navy and Whisper White, what a great combination!  To keep the card from being a monochromatic blue, I added a touch of Peekaboo Peach as one of the layers.  I didn't have a Night of Navy Stampin' Write Marker so I used my Dapper Denim marker around the edges of the Peekaboo Peach flower.  It darkened just enough that it almost looks navy.  The stamp set I used is the new Fabulous Flora.


Stamp Set:  Fabulous Flora; Inks:  StazOn; Stampin' Write Markers:  Dapper Denim, Peekaboo Peach, So Saffron, Wild Wasabi; Cardstock:  Night of Navy, Peekaboo Peach, Whisper White; Patterned Paper:  Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper; Other:  Metal Rimmed Pearls

    Love the use of the new DSP along with this pretty floral image! Your coloring looks amazing and the Dapper Denim edges on the flower do look like Night of Navy :-) Thanks for playing along with us at SUO Challenges- hugs and have a blessed week!

      Thanks so much, Karen! Fabulous Flora was one of the first stamp sets I knew I wanted from the new catalog.
