Hello and welcome. This is Marianne aka âLantanaâ here with you again for another fun Color Challenge.
This weekâs colors really have me excited. Chris, our host, chose these beautiful colors for us.
The colors are: Daffodil Delight, Smokey Slate, and Basic Gray. I love this color combination! âSomething that movesâ is the dessert option.
My card features new stamps from Altenew. The flower cluster stamp comes from an exclusive stamp set. I received it unexpectedly in the mail as an appreciation gift. Itâs always fun to get unexpected happy mail! I stamped the flower cluster three times and colored each image with markers. The three clusters were then fussy cut and placed around the sentiment. Dessert? I spy a flying insect.
Enjoy!

This is so lovely! Those bolder colored blooms against the soft gray (flannel??) plaid really seem to work wonders with your greeting. And you even got dessert with that cute little dragonfly...

Marianne, I love so much about this card, the pretty flower clusters, the layout, but most of all the greeting. What a lovely thought to share with a loved one. Oh, and free stamps are always fun!
