Hello, hello! Popping in with a card for a few challenges: Freshly Made Sketches, Color Throwdown and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge (stenciling). Let's have a look at what I made.
First things first, I will state the obvious that my flower is green. I hadn't intended for the flower to be green, but in my zeal to get my card done I stenciled my brick background with Uncharted Mariner distress oxide ink. My intention had been to stencil using a darker green and then use a light green and blue for the flower. Oh well, I actually like how things turned out... happy mistake! For the flower I used what green distress oxide ink was on my blending brush and then used Mowed Lawn distress ink for the stem. I stamped the sentiment, adhered the stem and flower and finished with some light blue and green sequins. Super quick and super simple! The die and sentiment are from Simon Says Stamp and the stencil is from My Favorite Things.
Well, that's it for me! Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day.

Turned out so sweet, Rosemary! I've debated about making a green flower, but didn't do it. I love the look you got, so have to remember to try it.
