Happy Monday, peeps! Hope you had a good weekend! My friend Michele inspired me to try the Color Hues challenge this week:
Michele is a whiz at making stupendous floral cards, so I can't even begin to compete with hers. But I did give it a go with SU's new stencils (ie: masks), and I really liked how this came out:
I am still struggling to get my photos to the way I like them--hopefully by Thursday I will have my own computer back---but I am hoping you can get the picture, LOL! I stenciled the lighter layer in Blushing Bride, then added Polished Pink on top. I used Misty Moonlight as my "navy", stenciling the leaves in that shade:
I added some pink speckles and a sentiment from Flowering Rain Boots. And while I had my blending brushes handy, I added another little flower on the inside of my Misty Moonlight card:
"All men are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of the Lord stands forever." 1 Peter 1:24-25
Stamps: Flowering Rain Boots, Friendly Hello
Paper: Basic White, Misty Moonlight
Ink: Blushing Bride, Polished Pink, Misty Moonlight
Accessories: Sequins from my stash
Tools: Big Shot, Stitched Rectangle Dies, Butterflies & Flowers Decorative Masks, Blending Brushes
LeAnne there's no competing between friends! You have stenciled these flowers so perfectly - inside, and out!
