Color Hues #45

Peach and gray.  Doesn't that sound like a lovely color combination?  That's what Color Hues is looking for in their recent challenge.   Here's the card I made for their gallery.


I started with Dove gray from C9, cut it with Altenew's Watercolor Stripes cover die and glued to my card base.  Altenew's Garden Rose was stenciled with their Peach Perfect and stamped with Pastel Sunrise. The leaves were stenciled with Hickory Smoke DI.  I thought it needed more so I cut the fern from PTI's Dahlia set out of vellum and added that to my arrangement.  I thought the gray's looked more like the same color when I chose the paper and ink.  I even stamped them in Memento London Fog. 

Thanks for dropping by.

That was me, Kara, as anonymous. I don't know why it did that, sorry.
