Dawn has a video up for the new Make It Monday.
I used the new Painted Petals Anniversary set and I think that was a hard one to use.
There are so many wonderful layers to it, I kept adding more colors with a sponge.
The colors are definitely softer and not as vibrant. It may look darker now because I added some sparkle from the new Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pen, which is awesome!
I sponged on some spring Moss color around the flower and leaves. The sentiment is from Spring Birds.
Having a wonderful time with my friend and I want to thank you all for my birthday wishes! Tomorrow we go meet Greta face to face~ so excited!!
See ya later, Heart Hugs!

Beautiful card, Colleen! I've had no luck so far with the technique, but will keep trying. It was such a treat to meet you & Linda in person--felt like we had been friends forever! Enjoy the rest of your time together.
Great card, Colleen! I'm anxious to try that technique with the new Painted Petals. How fun that you, Linda and Greta met in person.
What a pretty card!! I love the pop of color you created with the flower layered over the soft background!
I agree, the sponged stamping adds an instant softness to the stamping. Lovely!
Your card is so pretty, Colleen. I think the Painted Petals look amazing with this technique.
