One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

Colour Q Challenge # 239


I laid down some painters tape on two sides and then sponged on my colors,
sure looks bolder and brighter in the picture than it is in real life?
I used PTI Sweet Blush, Berry Sorbet, and Orange Zest
the image and sentiment were done in Ripe Avocao.
I mounted it on a ripe avocado card base.
 

 
You can go HERE  to play along.


Thanks for taking a look!
And we have sun and warmth!
Suppose to be in the 80's for the next few days!!

Heart hugs,
Colleen

I love the splash of color against the white and then the black of the stamp. Also how you placed your sentiment. A striking card, Colleen!
