WT181 Beautiful Flowers


Hey you all!!! Hope you are having a great week so far???

Today I made sure that I read the whole WT181 instructions before I got started... LOL - so I wouldn't mess up again....!!!

When I was a *Guest Architect* for *Innovative Stamp Creations* - Betsy Griffin the owner - was so generous to mail me a whole bunch of her gorgeous Stamp Sheets....and one of them is called *Beautiful Flowers* - I have not had a chance to use it unit I have seen today's
WT Challenge and I thought it would be perfect to color this particular image.

I've used the Watercolor Pencils from SU and added this *Color Float* (Delta) to shade and highlight my image. You can buy this product at Michael's.

My card measures 4" x 4". I used Whisper White as my card base. Then I added Basic Black plus Tangerine Tango CS.

The fun part is after I used the *Color Float* with the lighter Red from the Watercolor Pencil it's a perfect *Tangerine* match - wahhhhoooo!!! I also added some Dazzling Diamond Glitter in the center of the flowers. The gorgeous Brad is from *Anna Griffin* and the Black Satin Ribbon is from Walmart!!!

Hope you like it??? ~TFL~
