The current PDCC colors of Midnight, Aqua & Terra Cotta grabbed my attention as I don't think I've ever used them together. Many of you probably know my favorite style is elegant & that's what I decided to do for my entry. I started by inking Penny Black's wonderful floral background stamp called "blissful" with VersaMagic Night Sky. Then I used sponge daubers to color the blooms with VersaMagic Turquoise Gem & the leaves with VersaMagic Red Brick. I like the sort of artsy effect it gives--not worrying about staying in the lines. Then I covered it with Shimmer Spritz Bronze & added dots of Stickles. The panel is attached to a navy card with a bow & pearls to complete the look. The color of the ribbon actually blends with the leaves in real life.I'm happy to report that a few doses of antibiotics have our Keesha furbaby looking like her old self again. Thanks for all the well-wishes. Hope your week is off to a good start & thanks for taking time to stop by my blog.
