Time for a new challenge at Inkspirational.
It is our colour challenge and this time we are going with 'Orange and Green' You can use any shade of orange (eg peach, tangerine, coral) with any shade of green . You may also use black, white or cream and realistic colours for skin, fur and hair.
Here is my card:
If you follow my blog you will know I struggle with colouring however I bought some new flower stamps so that I could try to practice a little more. This is a NBUS Penny Black stamp. It is relaxing colouring but I can't say I am ever too pleased with the end result. When I got to posting my card I relaised I had forgotten to add green so that meant a very quick fix by adding a few gems. The sentiment is from STAMPlorations-another NBUS!
Our Guest Designer this week is Chriss-check out her amazing blog here. Then pop over to Inkspirational and see what our DT have got to inspire you x
I will enter this into Darnell's NBUS challenge as both the image and sentiment stamps have not been used before.
I will also enter into colouring challenge at HLS CAS challenge

Beautiful card, and your coloring is so pretty. Looks like you've gotten lots of practice. Love how your flowers are balanced by the sentiment.
