COLOR THROWDOWN #403

Love the soft colors in the Color Throwdown challenge this week.


Stamped and embossed the peonies in gold and then watercolored with my Zigs (tea rose, pale pink, almond pink, yellow and a little water).  The sentiment was stamped on a scrap of melon berry cs.  The gold stripe washi tape is another Target $1 bin find.  Main panel is popped up with foam tape - added a few sequins and done.  

Am off to Minnesota and the lake for 2 weeks and have only one blog post scheduled for 13 August before I come home.  I stamped a whole bunch of cards to take with me along with my Zigs (in case of a rainy day!).

Thanks for visiting and your kind comments.

    Have a wonderful time at the lake--wish I was there right now--haha! Stunningly beautiful card, Betty--I do need a few more Zig colors. I picked up a couple rolls of Washi my last time to Target, but they don't compare to this beauty!
