SCSC Challenge 34

This week's SCSC challenge is a colour one, Pink, Turquoise and a hint of brown. Now I don't really do turquoise so I have loosely interpreted the turquoise bit!!

I watercoloured this gorgeous Leanne Ellis image in using distress inks and then inked the edges in dark brown. I love this blue paper with the brown flowers and it goes so well with the pnk spotty paper. I punched some flowers and inked the edges in brown, and added turquoise organza and pink and turquoise gems.

Do take a peek at the other DT blogs. I am on holiday this week so I am sorry but I will not be visiting, so I will catch up with you next week.
Recipe:
Stamp(s): Sugar Nellie A little hug
Colouring Media: Distress inks
Papers: My Minds Eye Everyday Tango

Embellishments: punched flowers, gems and ribbon from stash
