Coral and Green for Color Hues

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

It's time for a new challenge at Color Hues.


This month Sheri picked our colors.  She chose....


I recently got a new fancy die.  It's a background die with additional dies for the flowers.

I die cut the background and enough of the flowers to add to the top and colored
all with Distress re-inkers used as watercolor.

When it was all painted and dried, I put the flowers together (isn't the dimension fantastic?)
and added the flowers over top.  Then I added it to a
card base with dimensionals for a 'floating frame'.

Now let's go and see what my talented friends and our
fantastic Guest Designer Kelly have done to inspire you.


I hope you'll create a card using Coral & Green and add it to the gallery at


Challenge ends at 9:00 AM on April 29th.
