Erum, I don't think there is a word that can capture how I would describe this, really, saying stunning, gorgeous, beautiful,it is more than that. Using all those colors was so worth it, you can tell by all the comments you blew people away with this. Girl, You ROCK!!!!

ServiceDogMommy said...

Thank you very much for listing the inks that you used to create each flower. I am thrilled Altenew released a nice big real hibiscus. However, after awhile each color family of four, become a little predictable. That is what is so brilliant about your card. It's lovely to have shades that match, but the results can be phenomenal when colors get combined. Your card with these color choices really do speak volumes. It is gorgeous Erum!

Vicki Dutcher said...

Unknown said...

One of my favorite things about Altenew inks is that I don't have to do a lot of thinking when it comes to layering, but I might need to start experimenting more, because I love how you used some different shades in these hibiscuses. I also really like the two different leaf color sets you used. And then the beautiful watercolor background? This whole card is just incredible. Thank you so much for sharing!
