The Flower Challenge #91 - Reminder

There is still time for you to play along at The Flower Challenge where the prompt is

You can use any medium you like and it's a good time to get practice with some you've neglected of late.


At some point I stamped several of these Rhododendron from EbyE and one found its way to my desk.  I thought it would be good to color with my Zigs since it had been stamped on Bristol.  (Luckily I wrote that info on the back of the panel).  Once it was die cut, I auditioned a number of ways to display it.  It's bright color needed a white background which is cut from Spellbinders Four Petal Label Dies, but also something deep to add drama.  Pine Feather from PTI did the trick, embossed with Altenew's Crystal Wall.

We hope to see your colored flowers joining our challenge.

Beautiful coloring with your Zigs, Bobby - the yellow center looks wonderful next to the bright orange! The deep green for the leaves and background was a great choice as well. Love it!
