Just Us Girls #432

Nancy is our host for the color challenge at Just Us Girls.
I was inspired by a shower curtain I saw online and switched it up a little to make my card.
I originally thought about placing the wildflowers in all three colors on a white card base but it just didn't do anything for me.  I put it aside and as often happens I had an epiphany in the wee hours of the morning.  I turned the two turquoise die cuts over and colored them with Walnut Stain DOX to go with the one I had already done and the two I did in Frayed Burlap.  Then I used some Peacock Feathers with a Clarity Brush on that white panel.  I love that you can stamp with DOX and used the walnut for my MCS sentiment.  It looks crooked to me but it's all one piece, so if it's crooked it's not me. ;)

I hope you  head off to see what the rest of the Design Team and our guest designer Stef Perry have made using these colors.  If you make a card you may be chosen Chic of the Week and be eligible to be our guest in May.

Soft and so pretty, Bobby ... there's such a lovely sense of texture on those silhouette wild flowers, they're gorgeous against the dreamy turquoise background! Hugs, Anita :)

I love those wild flower dies and only recently got mine from my bff as she had 2. They are such a keeper and what you have done here is fabulous. Perfect sentiment.

Those die cut wildflowers are so pretty and I think your epiphanies are something you should always listen to because this card turned out beautifully!
