I am really lovin' these colors - especially during these cold, dreary winter months! It sure has brightened my week! Create with Connie and Mary have done it again!
When I started out to create a card, I told myself "no flowers, the Bermuda Bay is not a true green and will not work for leaves"... Well, looking at the card, I didn't listen to myself - lol! I went floral and just went without leaves! I tried out a little watercoloring with the feature colors and just added a few more elements to bring it all together.
Be sure to check back tomorrow - I have a card using the leftover die cut out!

First of all your card is gorgeous! I looked at the supplies and saw painted petals. Where?, is what I asked myself. Then I realized that border that I LOVE down the right side of your card was stamped with painted petals images! Pure genius.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! I love the watercolor tag...so pretty! How did you do that? Lovely card!
ReplyDeleteGreat way to add the three colors into your watercolored tag! So bright and cheery!
ReplyDeleteThis is stunning! I love how you created the tag! A great way to use the challenge colors!
ReplyDeleteI love how you watercolored the tag and then diecut the word! A beautiful card using the challenge colors this week!
ReplyDeleteLove the watercoloured tag and the bold flower! I chuckled when I read your post Melissa as I often can't get my head around flowers in non-green colours, but sometimes it just works!!
