Karen chose some strong, bold and lovely colors for todayÂ’s challenge:
Raspberry Ripple
Island Indigo
Old Olive
Dessert: Pearls
With Karen including a green, it made it easy to do a floral design. This dahlia stamp set is one that relies on triple stamping to give it depth and dimension. Stamping off gave the lighter tones. I did come back in with some Copics on the flowers and used them to color the leaves. One bitty pearl for me for a small dessert. : )

What a gorgeous Dahlia! Love the triple stamping and your outstanding copic work enhanced your shading so beautifully! I too love that crepe paper you used in the background. Wow, Sallie, this is incredible!

Wow, this is stunning! I need to figure out how to line up the 2nd and 3rd steps on my dahlias. Need to search out a tutorial unless you have some tips for me.
