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. : )

Such beautiful use of today's colours, Sallie, the white outlines with the triple layer stamping creates real depth. The polka dots give a lift to the deep blue - lovely!

Sallie, like everyone else, I'm just blown away with the depth of color you were able to achieve. This is a beautiful card with an exceptional layout. Please send me a PM with the name of the PTI stamp set.
