Hope your Monday is starting out well! I have been trying to color everyday, (30 Day Color challenge) even if it's just a little. Today I'm sharing a card I colored on Saturday night and yesterday was too busy to get it posted. I've actually colored this image twice, the one shown is colored with Copic Markers. If I can I will post the second one I colored using Distress Inks and Markers later this evening.
This is a Himalayan Poppy designed by Jennifer Dove (C C Designs). I live in California and usually see our state flower in the orange and red tones so this was new to me. But since blue is my fav color I really enjoyed coloring this image. I've added a Paper Smooches sentiment and matted this in green and dark blue card stock. The white base and top layer is Neenah bright white 80lb c/s. I stamped the image with Versamark and then used white embossing powder which was a challenge coloring with white lines on white c/s.
Thanks for visiting!! I will be sharing this at the following challenge sites:
