Hi and welcome! Today I have the thrill of being guest stamper at Color Throwdown, because my card was randomly drawn as Featured Stamper. The colors this week are just gorgeous - check them out:
The colors are kraft, pink and pale green. Of course, when I saw those colors, I immediately thought of flowers!
I wanted to try pencil coloring on kraft after seeing some beautiful cards on my friend, Sonja's blog (and having received one from her in real life!) So I took a new Unity Stamp flower stamp and stamped it onto some Desert Storm cardstock. I then very loosely colored it with pink, green and white Prismacolor pencils. The sentiment comes from Verve and is one of my favorite sympathy sentiments.
I layered the panel onto black and Pink Pirouette and then onto a Desert Storm cardbase. To finish the card, I kept it pretty low-key and only added some Rainstones.
Thanks for visiting. Be sure to check out the fabulous creations from the team at Color Throwdown - they amaze me every week with their gorgeous cards!
