Romantic Polka

 

At Just Add Ink this week we have a challenge to Just Add Polka Dots.

I decided to use the flowers from Bordering on Romance again and of course lots of dots.

I was a bit “mmmm maybe” about this set when it first came out and I didn’t buy it straight away.  But I’m so glad I decided to get it.  These flowers are just so pretty and they are great to colour.

I coloured the flowers with markers on watercolour paper again and I love this colour combo too.  This time I used wisteria, island indigo and elegant eggplant with lucky limeade for the leaves.

 

Ingredients :

Stamps :  Bordering on Romance, Curly cute

Card : concord crush, vanilla, watercolour paper, in colour dsp stack (ret)

Ink : stazon, markers (wisteria, indigo, eggplant, limeade, bashful blue)

Other : limeade ribbon. mat pack, tasteful trim, big shot, pearls

 

The JAI design team have made some gorgeously dotty cards this week.  Please take a look and join us in this (not very hard) challenge.

  2. Kathy I too was a bit ho hum about the bordering on romance set, however, I got it in and love it too for watercolouring. Must use it a bit more though, when I can find the time to craft. Love your card and colours and especially the strip of vibrant green ribbon makes it more striking.
