Leaves & Flower

Loved the "neutral" monochromatic color scheme from the Colour Me...! Card Challenge this week.  It gave me a chance to play with the Tim Holtz Garden Greens die and the Wink of Stella Brush I purchased yesterday.  The brush adds a touch of shimmer to your color.  The one I used is the Clear Shimmer brush.  While it is hard to see in the photo, I did use the brush on both the flower punch outs.  No matter how hard I tried to get a good photo of the shimmer, it just would not cooperate.  Sigh... some days are just like that.

Now it's time for me to get on out of here.  I have a party to go to.  But, I'll tell you all about it in tomorrow.  Well, actually, I'll more than likely show you what it was all about.  :-)
