For today's colors: Indigo, Pool & Limeade. I almost didn't play along, but almost only counts in Horseshoes & Hand Grenades (so I'm told)! Such gorgeous colors, Kim! I've had this card in my favs and today I cased it: Language of Friendship by brandycox at Splitcoaststampers
I can't seem to get enough of this bird stamp! This time I stamped it in Indigo, sponged and used marker around the edges. I didn't have a large enough scallop oval so I got innovative and punched more than one then pieced them together. Added a pearl for the bird's eye and rhinestones on the flowers. Thanks for stopping by today! ~Roberta

This is beautiful Roberta! I have that stamp and the punch to go with, but have not used either yet. I love everything about your card, from the flourishes to the punched flowers. I could just not wrap my head around these colors today, I hate days like that!! But you have done a fab job!!
