I have one more card to share for the day and it is for 3 challenges, Serendipity #27- Buttons, Addicted to Stamps & More #77 and ColourQ #223. I had sooooo much fun making this card. When I first set out to make it I was looking for card stock and ink to match the colors from this week's ColourQ but came up empty, nothing! But then I remembered I purchased a set of Inktense pencils for Ashleigh and thought I would give them a try. Wow!!! They are worth every penny and I am so glad we got the set with 72 colors! You will go crazy with these and that is a promise, these pencils are simply amazing! Thank you so much for taking time to stop by to peek at my card...enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Edited to add Addicted to Stamps & More #77

Oh Kim, this is so summery and pretty ... a veritable riot of gorgeous colour! It's one of those can't-help-smiling cards ... so happy! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful, happy and sunshiny card Kim - makes me smile! Thanks for playing along at Colour Q this week!
ReplyDeleteThis card is a beauty! Love the look of the Inktense watercolor pencils. DId you heat-emboss the flower image first? It seems to have some dimension, and it helps to keep the pencil coloring "in place." I see you are a fan of the Lil' Inker stitched mats, too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful card Kim. Love the image and your coloring.
ReplyDeleteWOWZERS KIM!!! You seriously colored these pretties? Absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteMy first reaction when I saw your card was "Where did she find such cool colored rub-ons?" I'm quite sure that sales of these INKTENSE pencils will be through the roof after visiting your blog :) Your spring garden will definitely be making someone's birthday a happy one!
Kim this was a great stamp to choose for the Serendipity Stamps Challenge. Love your coloring and colors from CQ. That button is perfect on this pretty card. Thanks so much for playing again. Bet you found it relaxing coloring this one.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a pretty garden card, Kim! Great job on the coloring! I've been wondering about those pencils, but I have the full set of Prismacolors and don't imagine I can justify having both brands!! BTW, you should edit your post and also link with the "Make Your Mark" challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More - pencils are included. I hope you are enjoying your weekend! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteThis is just beautiful, and I love how you added the buttons on the flowers. Wonderful coloring, too. I am glad that you like your new pencils. I think I need to get this stamp, too.
