Color Hues #111 - Coral and Green

Finally!  A color challenge with green so I don't have to make funny colored leaves. 😬  Thank you, Sheri, and Color Hues.


I was waiting for my Honey Bee Layered Rose to arrive to make my card.  I know it looks more red in the photo but I used Abandoned Coral Distress Ink on it and Mowed Lawn and Rustic Wilderness on the leaves and stem.  The background is a coverplate from Lawn Fawn backed with light gray.  The sentiment is 'You are Everything'  BetterPress from Spellbinders.  I can't wait to make this rose in other colors.  

Thanks for visiting.  And double thanks if you left a comment.


ETA:  I totally forgot to send my rose to Darnell's NBUS challenge.  She is celebrating her 75th challenge to inspire us to use our hoarded not yet used products.

Gorgeous Anniversary card with that lovely rose and pretty background. Lovely coloring on the pretty rose. I love the background and how the light gray peeks through the openings.

Your rose is the prize winner in my book! Love the colors and the pretty background you put it on, it's almost as if it's laying on a swatch of lace, waiting patient for its photo

You've created a stunning rose, Bobby! They definitely pop against the white background, which I love with the dainty die cut cover plate design. Thank you so much for joining in at Color Hues (and yes, I wish we could have green as a neutral - that would make it so easy lol)!

I've just spit my coffee all over my keyboard, Bobby! What? You don't like pink leaves?😂Your classic long-stemmed coral rose with the beautiful shading is a frameable work of art, especially with the awesome cover plate in the background! Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! Hugs, Darnell
