For this week's Impression Obsession challenge (Bloom Where You're Planted)... I used Prismacolor pencils to color the orchids. The bricks were added using a stencil from Want2Scrap.. .the additional texture was added by stippling Inktense ink through a piece of drywall mesh tape. I used a piece that had a little ink on it already, so the teal color is sort of accidental but I like the contrast that it adds.

Gorgeous, Dina! I love how you have used color here, with the green moving up from the left lower corner and then blending into your Inktense color. Every card is a mini art lesson!
