Today I am playing along with the Curtain Call Color Challenge: ACT {49}.
Here are the fabulous color scheme for this week.
I did have to substitute some "other" similar colors for the tan colors.
I kind of went back to my roots so to speak. I went with a technique I learned when
I first started stamping: Chalk popping. (At least that's what I was taught it was called!)
The centers of my flowers look a bit green but I used some tan
shimmery chalk for the centers....I promise!
For this I also had to do a little masking and I really like how this turned out.
What do you think? I so wanted to add some pearls or something but I am
leaving it "off" so to speak. :)
Have a great day!
