Just Us Girls #484 - Color Week

Maria is the host for Color Week at Just Us Girls and she chose these lovely spring colors.
I was playing around with a stamp I bought a while ago and hadn't used.  I hadn't even looked at the challenge colors at the time but when I was finished it was the perfect card.
This is the Hello Lovely stamp from Concord and 9th.  It has the open images to color or the loosely shaped layers to ink up and stamp.  You have to get used to the 'messy' look if you want to do it that way.  I used Altenew inks except for the outline which is Twilight by Catherine Pooler.  The sentiment is from EBE.

The Design Team and our guest Designer have some lovely cards to inspire you.  We hope you'll make a card using the challenge colors and enter it in the gallery.  You may be chosen Chic of the Week and have the chance to guest design with us.

Very pretty! Love the loose look, something which I aspire to do, but usually set aside, but yours is so pretty

Bobby, this is gorgeous! That beautiful Concord & 9th image is so perfect with the challenge colors and I love how you stamped the sentiment over part of the image, too.
