I pulled out my favorite sage inks, then a pink or two and spent my day yesterday making cards with just those two colors.
Have you guessed the challenge? Color Hues, of course and my sweet friend Marcia is the hostess with the most-est!
I had another new stencil set from Waffle Flower to test drive - no time like the present!
Postage Collage: Wild Flowers with their original postage stencil as backup
singers... I'm thinking this is the first time I've ever added those 'airmail' stripes around the edge!
I found a lovely, patterned paper in such a wonderful sage and white:
This little bloom from The Stamp Market was the perfect specimen, and that die from PTI was just the shape to mount it on. I cut
the bloom from white and used my blending brushes to add color.
This PTI Stormy Sky is in my opinion the most wonderful sage cardstock there is!
While shuffling through my papers I came upon this next one that has glazed roses - more 'antique' pink than Marcia's - but any hue will do they say!
I cut a panel with an old favorite from Winnie and Walter.
Here's her closeup so you can see the shine:
My die-cut 'rose' is actually a poppy - from Altenew: Craft a Flower: Poppy to be exact - but I think it makes a lovely rose. A sprig of Boho Botanical from The Stamp Market and my card is complete! [we probably don't need to talk about those BP sentiments - do we?]

I might save this one for an upcoming wedding.
Okay, that's quite enough from me today - now I need to decide which one will be sent to Marcia for her Color Hues gallery! Decisions, decisions! lol
Thanks for dropping by!
