I was gifted a set of Hero Arts Shadow stamps when my friend Sue passed away, and I used one of these with distress inks to make my background. I then spritzed it some glimmer mist in a reddy colour to give some shimmer. I then stamped the Hydrangea in red and green ink and coloured with distress inks. I added some highlights with a white gel pen. The seam binding ribbon ( purchased here) finished it off beautifully. I was pleased with the final result.
I am enjoying the camp as I do struggle with putting colours together. Seeing all the wonderful inspiration from Jennifer and Kristina and their guests is just awesome.
As a little side note, our niece, Rachel and her hubby, Angus, are now the proud parents of Willem born 5th July 2011 in Toronto. Well done Rachel and Angus! He's very sweet.
Hope you week is going well...
Cheers
Dawn

Lovely Dawn You have worked the colours to give a soft feel to the card. 5 colours can be a little overwhelming to make a design, so be proud of yourself for taking up the challenge.
