This is another card inspired by one of Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenges. I don't usually get to play the actual week that she posts them, but I love using them when I do get a chance. You can see WSC #47 HERE.
Anyway, I distressed the edges of the Whisper White CS that I had stamped "Thanks" on after I punched it using my Wide Oval Punch.
I stamped the flowers in Tangerine Tango ink and removed the TT ink where I didn't want it with my blender pen so that I could re-color them back in with Olive, Saffron and Mustard. I was doing this to show how you don't have to have a re-inker to use the In Colors to selectively color an image. The easier method WOULD be to use a Blender Pen and re-inker to color a few of the flowers Tangerine Tango.
So Saffron is not usually my "go to" color for a card base, but I was using colors found in the Haiku DSP and kind of went with it.
Hope you like it!!
