Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
We took a short trip to visit family and I'm slow getting back into the studio.
I actually started this card before we left and I've finally finished it.
I love the colors at The Flower Challenge this month and the die with all these flowers
has been languishing in the NBUS box for way too long. Using all these colors made coloring
all the flowers fun.
The flowers were cut from mixed media paper and some from Neenah Solar White.
I think I used a combination of ink blending and water to color them.
The frame is new and came just before we left. I've cut it twice and stacked, then
mounted it with dimensional strips.
Challenges:
The Flower Challenge #94 - Be Inspired by the Colors (below)
NBUS #65 - Never Before Used Schtuff (Flowers, Leaves & Frame)
I'll leave you with a photo of all the gang we got to spend the day with and
the beautiful scenery.
