Karen is hosting the Color Challenge this week. Her choice of colors is Tahitian Tide, Parakeet Party and Blushing Bride. The dessert option is music.
The colors reminded me of this fun flamingo. It looks like she is ready for a luau and already stepping to the beat of the Hawaiian music. I stamped on watercolor paper and then watercolored in the challenge colors. To create the water look at the bottom, I first masked with a post it note. I bunched up some plastic wrap, tapped it on the ink pad and then pounced on the paper, first in Tahitian Tide, and then a little more in Parakeet Party. The musical sentiment is from a different set and was layered over a crimped scrap of cardstock. After the card was assembled, I applied Wink of Stella sparkle to the water, flowers, flamingo back, and all over the sentiment. So sparkly! Inside sentiment: Hope today tickles you pink. Have fun with the colors!

Adorable as well as beautiful! Love the watercolor painting/shading. The flamingo is so sweet, the colors are summery and the way you did the headline is fantastic...

Love how you did the water look, Diane. Looks fabulous. You had the perfect stamp for this challenge. Love the punch that your crimped parakeet piece gives. Wonderful watercolored look!
