KWerner Color Challenge #46



These colors messed with my brain! The blue and pink together kept telling me to go "baby", but I couldn't do it with the red and black there.


Finally I decided to bust out my Technique Tuesday flower petals and pair it with a stamp from an Ali Edwards Kit that Creating Keepsakes sold eons ago. I colored the petals with copics. I like how that looked versus just using the cardstock. I popped the petals off the page with some pop dots (check your dollar store people - they have a large sheet of them and they work terrific!). I thought about distressing the background, but again, less was more here as I wanted to let the flower take center stage. Hope you like it! The heart is a quickutz die that I punched and then colored with Copics. A big departure from my usual style.

edited: Ok, I couldn't take the floating card. I grounded it on a red and black base....ah much better.

Supplies:
Stamps: Technique Tuesday (flower petals), Creating Keepsakes (live life everyday)Cardstock: Stampin UpInk: Memento Tuxedo BlackCopics: R10, RV81, R85, R27
