This weeks inspiration piece is quite lovely, Mona picked the colors: Kraft, Raspberry, White and Aqua (see the inspiration piece below). I went through my papers and pulled out the following card stock Kraft, Melon Mambo, Watercolor and Soft Sky to work with. I think it took me longer to decide how I was actually going to layer the panels than it did to create my card!
I thought the Holly Hock image from Mark's Finest Papers would work perfectly with this weeks challenge, as it allowed me to add in that touch of Raspberry - or in my case Melon Mambo to the flowers. The images are stamped in Sepia, then colored using the Marker Watercoloring Technique. To add some texture under my images, I embossed the Kraft panel with the Brick Wall Texture Fades Folder, and the Soft Sky panel with the Damask Folder, adding a bit of ink to highlight the embossing.

You are too funny!!! Your panels looks great and the flower is beautiful. I just made a card last night with these colors but need some help with what it's still missing so I'm pondering about it today!!! Right up my alley although my raspberry is a little lighter.
