Today's card uses a Stampingbella image called Petunia Gets a Piggy Back. I've had this stamp for ages and I love the whimsical nature of it. Bellarific Friday has a colour inspiration for their challenge this week so thought I'd give it a go.
I usually have difficulties with colour themes and did with this one too but I am happy with the end result. These themes do get me out of my comfort zone which is good but I wobble back and forth so much when choosing paper and colours that I usually spend an unreasonable amount of time doing it. After I finished colouring the image, I sponged in Tim Holtz Tumbled Glass distress ink and a cardstock cloud template which I found on the internet a long time ago.
I am actually doing a fairly decent job of wading through my stockpile of Bellas. I have so many and decided I would try to do one per week so they could all see some ink. (new ones should be coming out soon now!).
Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!
