Color Throwdown #389

My BFF's over at the Color Throwdown have another great challenge today that I couldn't pass up... LOVE me some pink and orange together, don't you?


Those sweet little flowers on the shoes really spoke to me, so I pulled out my LJD Scribble Roses stamp set from My Favorite Things and got to work!  I really loved the Valentine tag I made a few months ago using this stamp set, so that was also my inspiration for this card...



I stamped my roses and leaves in Versamark ink on watercolor card stock, then heat embossed with white embossing powder.  And over the flowers and leaves I did a wash with dye inks in Orange Zest, Tangy Orange, Razzle Berry, Ripe Raspberry, Sour Apple and Jellybean Green.  I added some splatters with watered-down Steel Grey dye ink, and also some silver and pearlescent sprays.  For the sentiment I used the Doubly Amazing Die-Namics, cut with Steel Grey card stock, and the Amazing stamp set.


I'm also entering this card in the sketch challenge this week at Can You Case It?, and the Simplicity Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge.




Have a happy Wednesday, and thank you for stopping by today!
