What an unusual sketch at this week's In{k}spire Me #217! I have to match it up with the pretty sorbet colors at Create With Connie & Mary #374!
I decided to go floral today - all these yummy pinks made me think of shading something special, you know? I kept the card fairly sparse, with teeny touches of pearls that I colored up. I know we don't have the Blendabilities anymore, but well, I still have ALL of mine, and I try to remember to pull them out at least for dolling up my embellies!
I couldn't decide which flower I wanted to color, so I ended up combining my two faves, lol...
You've Got This & Best Thoughts Stamp Sets; Whisper White CS; Memento tuxedo Black, Watermelon Wonder, Calypso Coral & Blushing Bride Inks; Banner Triple Punch; Basic Jewel Pearls; Calypso Coral Blendies (discontinued.)

Very soft and pretty! Love how the watercoloring mutes the colors to make them a little less bold, more feminine. Thanks for playing the Create with Connie and Mary color challenge this week!
