colourQ 207

Day two of my vacation dawns with a brand new color challenge from colourQ!  I combined the colors, inspired by this sweater, with the sketch at CAS(E) This Sketch but I'll admit that I struggled a bit.



I had big plans to do something original and fun with the sketch, but I couldn't seem get my brain to work to come up with anything, plus I had these leafy branches in my head and couldn't get them out.  So I went with the branches.  Once I stamped them and colored in the flowers, the pink and coral were so small the colors were almost indistinguishable from each other so I added the sequins for a pop of pink.

The colourQ design team have got some great cards to show you, so be sure to check them out.  Thanks for stopping by!

Supplies:
Stamps:  Off the Grid, Artfully Asian, Bloomin' Marvelous (SU)
Paper:  Neenah Solar White; Night of Navy, Whisper White (SU)
Ink:  Baked Brown Sugar, Night of Navy, Copics
Accessories:  Sugar Blend sequins (Avery Elle)
