Act 27's colours are just the perfect inspiration for a Mother's Day creation- introducing the colours........... Certainly Celery, Whisper White, Pink Pirouette and Melon Mambo.
I have used Rose Red as Melon Mambo is a new colour here, even though I have some card stock but I don't have the ink pad, as you can see I used not cardstock but needed the ink- isn't that always the way!! I have to admit that I love Rose Red, I feel it is a bit more Mumsy than the Melon Mambo- but I sure that I will fall in love with Melon Mambo too in the not too distant future, my new MM inkpad is only a week away, just ordered it today- yipee!!!
Yet another week when my card looks nothing like what was in my head before I started!! When I was looking at all the delicious entries from last week, I was inspired to create a clean and simple look with lots of white- Hmmm........... this is not the result for me though :(. I take my hat off to all those very talented ones who can pull it off - mwah!!
Aren't these flowers in the picture just beautiful, I just want to smell them up!!!
