Happy Monday!
It`s the first Monday of the month and that means it`s time for another Bring Back Beautiful challenge!
Have you ever used neutral colors to bring out the depth in one of your coloring projects? Well, let's kick it up a knotch and show you just how beautiful your stamped creations can be without any color at all! That's right, this challenge is to color up your card with neutrals - shades of grey, sepia tones or even black and white!
Link up your Bringing Back Beautiful Challenge card HERE to enter. If you upload to SCS, please use the keyword BBB08. You have until March 31st to enter! As we unveil our challenge for next month, we’ll share our True Beauties – those card makers who wowed us with this challenge! Winners will be featured on the Flourishes Blog and will receive a True Beauty blog button to display proudly on their blog!
For my sample I used A year in flowers 2 stamp set, and colored the roses with different shades of brown, using Distress Inks. I cut out the colored image and popped it up with dimensionals. I hope you`ll join us with this fun challenge!
For more inspiration, have a look at these beauties:
