I did the background first when normally I would save that for last because I'm so eager to dive right into the fun part :) I'm glad I did tho--it was a lot easier to fix boo boos...lots of boo boos. I'll be coloring this again when I have more blue colors. In this case, I used gray to tone it done some. I like the effect. I also love the sentiment from PTI's Meadow Greens which I got around Xmas. Is this really the first time I've used it??

wow Toni, this colouring is stunning. Good idea to colour the background first and that red really stands out against the blue. Thanks for joining ATSM
ReplyDeleteStunning - your card has a real impact! Wowzers! Well done Toni! Thanks for playing with us at the ATSM challenge!

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful garden you have created on your card! thanks for joining us in the Fusion Challenge Toni!
ReplyDeleteThe colours are amazingly vibrant on this. It's a gorgeous card.
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful bright card Toni and the colouring is wonderful. I love the stitched rectangle and the thoughtful sentiment too. x
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine how gorgeous Rhea's card is, if your card is half as good, Toni! I suspect that your work of art is every bit as good! It certainly made my jaw drop! I will be using my Pin of this for inspiration since I have that sediment and I have an awesome (NBUS) corner garden set from SU that I just HAD to have, but now I'm nervous about my ability to color it. It is so nice to have examples and stampers to pave the way!! Thank you so much for playing in my NBUS Challenge #4!! Hugs, Darnell
