Have you noticed that when you don't color for long periods of time that you take awhile to get back into the groove of things? That was my trouble this weekend and it was frustrating. Valentines day is just a few days away so I had to get the boys, my husband and the boys girlfriends done. This was my first attempt at coloring and it looks muddy to me. Ugh! So frustrating but I already committed to finishing this card. Here we go...
The beautiful image is called Everything's Even Rosier from Power Poppy and one of my favorite sets. My pink hues turned out rather muddy from over coloring I know. That is what happens when you are out of practice. But I like the over all feel of the pink papers I used from the scrap bin. Added some piercing around the edges and a fish tail die cut behind the sentiment. Tied off some silver cord and a flower from my stash. Voila! Maybe one of the boys will like this for the girls? We will see. More valentine's coming this week. Thanks for stopping by.

Wow, Stacy! You're blowing my mind with this utterly gorgeous card! And what the heck are you talking about-- muddy? No siree! It's beautiful and just the sweetest, most feminine thing. Shaking my head... this is awesome!
I actually lobe your roses...the pinks and corals are lovely!! I sighed a happy sigh when I saw it...the background papers compliment the illustrations so well!! Way to go, Stacey!
