CIRCLES AROUND CHARLIE

This card was created for today's Limited Supply Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.
We were to use circles on our card. I used my circle Nesties and my Bloom Dots Embossing folder. My Paisley embossing folder was also used on this card.

This card also is for the CLEAR DOLLAR STAMPS Weekend Colour Challenge over at PaperCraft Planet. The link is in my sidebar, or click on the link above to play along. Our colours this week were Night of Navy, Creamy Carmel, Riding Hood Red, with White as our Neutral.
I sponged over the edges of the embossed bloom dots to define the circles a bit more. Charlie was coloured with an aquapainter, and I tried my hand at the cloud tutorials that I have seen.

Card Supplies:

Stamps: ClearDollar Stamps: Charlie Gardens

Ink: Black Staz-on, Night of Navy, Riding Hood Red, Creamy Carmel, Tangerine Tango, Kiwi Kiss, Baja Breeze

Paper: Night of Navy, Creamy Carmel, Riding Hood Red, Whisper White

Accessories: Paisley and Bloom Dots embossing folders, Nesties, aquapainter, sponge daubers, Riding Hood Red Tafetta Ribbon

Thanks for looking.

Have a great evening.

Gloria
