CSS Group Color Challenge!!


Hi everyone!!  Welcome to the CSS Group Color challenge!!  You should have arrived from Tera's blog, if not, be sure to head over to Stamp TV to start from the beginning, you don't want to miss a thing!!
Cheri challenged us to use yellow, gray, white and another color of our choice.  I knew I wanted to use a flower so I chose green.  I decided to use an old favorite, Garden Silhouettes, such a pretty set!  I used my Memento Cantelope and Pear Tart markers to color the flower and then huffed before stamping.  In the photo the goosebumps in the middle of the flower looks black but it really is gray, just a bit darker than the birthday wishes sentiment (my colors look a bit off to me but I can't seem to fix it, sorry about that!).   I thought it would be fun to pull out another old favorite, my swiss dots embossing folder, love this folder and it sure shows!  Ha!!
Make sure to leave a comment as you hop along because we will choose a random comment and that stamper will win a grab bag of Gina K Designs products!  Look for the announcement on Tuesday August 13th.
Next on the hop is Linda!!!!

    Lori, you have such a talent with CAS and I just love this one. Your flower just jumps off the white and the ribbon is perfect.
