Hello everyone! Time for a new Paper Players challenge, and Ann has given us some colors of spring to chase away those winter doldrums:
Believe it or not, I don't have a lot of floral images and that's what these colors brought to mind. I decided on this image from Rustic Centerpiece, which was an Online Exclusive and sadly, seems to be retired:
This was pretty simple to create; the image was stamped in Black Stazon, then watercolored with an aquapainter and the challenge color inks:
The sentiment from Unbounded Love was stamped in Lost Lagoon and embellished with some pearls, then the whole panel went on a Lost Lagoon card base. I left the inside blank so I can use it for whatever occasion arises!
I hope you'll find some inspiration over at the Paper Players blog by seeing what the designers created, then putting these colors on a project of your own! Thanks for visiting today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

Beautiful card LeAnne. Your coloring is perfect.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty, LeAnne! Love your coloring and these colors! Great card for today's challenge! Stay warm!!!
ReplyDeleteLeAnne, your watercoloring is so pretty for this lovely rustic image. I am so ready for Spring. Who wouldn't love to receive this beauty! Have a wonderful week, My Friend!
ReplyDeleteAs always your watercoloring is beautiful! The sentiment and pearls finish it off nicely.
ReplyDeleteThis is a beauty, LeAnne! I love that stamp set and I think they're retiring things far too quickly nowadays, it's blink-and-you-miss-it. Anyway, this stamp is the perfect choice for the challenge colors and you painted the image beautifully.
ReplyDeleteJUST BEAUTIFUL!
ReplyDeleteLeAnne you've done a grand job of colouring this lovely rustic image; I have loved every card you've made with this stamp set. So perfect for this week's colours too!
ReplyDeleteLeAnne, your card is gorgeous. You made a great choice using this image. It is a classic, and you have colored it exquisitely. It shows off the challenge colors perfectly! The lucky recipient will treasure it for certain. Have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, LeAnne! I didn't buy this stamp, probably because it looked too plain; however, you really brought it to life!! I love your colors (Thanks, Ann!). Lost Lagoon is always beautiful for any card.
ReplyDeleteCAS and beautifully done!!
ReplyDeleteThe image is very pretty but it's your gorgeous colouring that brings it to life and makes it wow!
ReplyDeleteBeautifully done, LeAnne! Love the look of having it all on top of the wood slab and there is a wonderful rustic feel to it. Watercoloring was the perfect medium for this image.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully colored! I have absolutely no ability to do that so I am in awe of the dimension you created on each element.
ReplyDeleteLeAnne, I love this composition. I also love all the white space you left around it and the subtle grey that grounds it. Beautifully colored, too!
