The next is The Sisterhood of Crafters and their challenge is to use sparkle.
When I first saw this challenge I thought of this stamp that hadn't seen ink yet, it was just itching to be used :) I colored with Spectrum noir markers.
For my sparkle I had this silver diamond paper that already had glitter on it, I also added stickles to the center of my flower and I am hoping you can see in this next picture that I added Spectrum Clear sparkle pen to the water in the vase.
I wouldn't normally color like this so I liked the challenge, the flowers really pop.
Penny Black - Rose Bowl stamp, colored w/markers

Stickles - yellow

There are a few more days left in each challenge if you want to play along.
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,
Connie

Wow! Your gray and pink could not be prettier, Connie! The added sparkle brings out more texture, and beautifies your wonderful creation. The matting in the background is fantastic! Gorgeous card, my sweet friend! hugs, de
Love the gray and pink color scheme and those beautifully colored flowers! The sparkle adds just the right finishing touch!
Fabulous colouring. Your shading really makes your flowers stand out. Grey and pink go so well together. Nice work, once again. Have a good weekend Connie.
What a pretty card!Have a lovely weekend!Hugs.
Connie, what a gorgeous color of pink! The muted gray colors are lovely and perfect to bring out the true pinks!
Those flowers do pop beautifully. Love the colours...the pretty pink and soft grey look perfect together. Another gorgeous, Connie.
Connie,
Thanks so much for stopping by! These are lovely colors and look beautiful together!! My MIL used to make Stouffer's lasagna and it was quite good!! Joe is not fond of lasagna or anything mixed together in casserole form but will eat it the day I serve it and then that is it. Me, who was raised with lots of Italian friends whose Nonnies made homemade pasta, can live on all that Italian food!!!
Hugs,
Debbie
Beautiful Connie! Your coloring came out lovely and I can see the sparkle in the center of the flowers when I enbiggen the pictures. ;0)
Gorgeous coloring, what a beautiful image! I love those flowers. I had to make several sympathy cards the other day and I chose a plae pink and grey with WOS sparkle....you can't go wrong with those colors. This is beautiful!
Oh, Connie, this is absolutely stunning! Your coloring of this beautiful stamp is gorgeous. I'm a new fan of the gray leaves. I wouldn't have thought of it, either, but I love it so much. Things don't have to be just the way we always think of them. Pretty sparkle. Feels good to ink up a not-yet-used stamp, I know!
you sure did rise to the challenge, the card is spectacular!!!
Beautiful just love this gorgeous card, the stamp and colours are stunning.xx
Such a pretty card Connie. Love the simple design... the soft coloring looks very pretty. It's a lovely image.
One word …
FABULOUS
All the best Jan
Oh, dear Connie, this is gorgeous! I saw this challenge and have thought about it, and you've really made a stunning card with pink and gray! I love this image and love the DP you've used. Truly a perfect card in every way, and I'm sure the sparkle is even prettier IRL! Love and hugs, sweet friend! xoxo
Connie, I know what you mean when you say "I don't normally color like this." It totally works with your objective of making the floral image pop! And I love the bits of gray with the leaves. Wish I could see the sparkle better, but I know it is there and shows up so much better in person. Thanks for sharing your card with the Sisterhood of Crafters sparkle challenge. Hope to see you often in our gallery!
This is such a beautiful card, such a clever design too.Thanks for sharing with us over at 'The Flower Challenge ;) Viv DT xx
Your flowers really caught my eye in the Gallery, the colour is incredible and your colouring skills amazing. Love how they are so vibrant and the leaves and rest of the card is so soft. Its a beautiful card and I'm so glad you shared it with us at The Flower Challenge!
