Oh how I love getting inky! I was out of town last week so I had a week of withdraw from my craft room :) Yes, yes...I know I am weird, but seriously crafting is so relaxing to me. So, I was so happy to craft and make a card for this weeks ColourQ challenge. I've been getting my money's worth out of these Verve flowers! I decided to use the emboss resist technique to color these flowers using my Ranger Distress Inks. They are off a bit from the colors in the inspiration, but I love the effect.
Hope your Monday gets off to a fabulous start!
This is so pretty Lynn, I love your use of color!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
