CLEAR DOLLAR STAMPS WEEKEND COLOUR CHALLENGE

I made this card for the Clear Dollar Stamps Weekend Color Challenge.

We were to use Pinks, Browns, Lime Greens and White. I chose the Bella Rose DSP from SU: Chocolate Chip, Pink Pirouette and Kiwi Kiss.

I used the Peony stamp set for CLEAR DOLLAR STAMPS which is one of my favourites. I stamped it on watercolour paper and used my aquapainter to colour it in. It was cut out and popped up on dimensionals I added a bit of Dazzling Diamonds glitter to the center of the flower

I found this unique fold from my friend Loretta's card HERE. She found a video tutorial on VALITA'S DESIGNS & FRESH FOLDS BLOG.

Here is a photo of the card laying flat.
