Hello friends! It's time for a new Color Challenge! Barbara is hosting this week and she has chosen the bright and beautiful color combination of Tempting Turquoise, Cucumber Crush, Daffodil Delight and Berry Burst, with a dessert option to add flowers.
For my card I decided to use an image of a kitty walking through the flower patch from Waffle Flower that I thought would work perfectly with the challenge colors. I also used Copic Markers to color the stamped image. I am just learning to use these markers so my blending still needs some work on larger images, but I am enjoying the process of getting acquainted with a new media.
The cat and flowers were stamped on Bristol paper, then masked (ETA: just the kitty and the larger flowers) so the background could be ink blended with Distress Inks and a stencil to create the clouds. When complete, the image was colored with copics, the sentiment die cut and added to the card front along with white crystal drops, then the card assembled.
Thanks so much for looking, and I hope you'll be able to join the Color Challenge this week!
Accessories: Copic Markers, Hello There die set (MFT), Wonky Rectangle die (SSS), Tonic Nuvo Simply White Crystal Drops and Aqua Shimmer pen, Clouds for Days stencil (SSS)

Stef, your little kitten is so sweet, stopping to smell the flowers (something we all should do!) Wow--you masked all those little flowers?!?! Wow! You're doing great with your Copics, and the blended background looks great, too!
