Coloured Flowers

Hi guys! I think it's time to post another blog entry, eh??? The summer is just flying by!!! So little time! But ever so often it's nice to sit down with a cup of tea and do some serious blogging and blog hopping....and share a card or two from my stash. :)

Here's one I recently made with a stamped image....an image that I actually coloured as well!!! :O

LOL -- yeah, colouring an image for a card doesn't happen very often in my world. It's not that it's difficult -- it just takes me out of my comfort zone. :p  But from time to time I like to mix things up...and see what'll happen if/when I try something new.

I saw some cards with very simple colored images -- no promarkers and all the things the "professionals" in blog land use -- just using simple markers that do one colour, etc. It made me realize that images could look just as good without all those fancy supplies...that just aren't in my crafting budget...no matter  how much I wish I had some...

And my card turned out really nice if I do have to say so myself! Love the summery feel it has -- bright and cheerful. :) Perfect for putting a smile on someone's face...

 Whatcha think??? I don't need the promarkers, eh??? :p LOL
