This week Color My Heart brings you a monochromatic color dare using the Oranges of our CTMH palette. Check out these colors: Poppy, Sunset, Sorbet with White Colonial. What can you create using this combination of colors?
I admit I struggled a bit with this one. I ended up basing my card on one in the Annual Expressions book. All the artwork in the books can be a great inspiration to copy or just get you started!
The seashell is stamped in Poppy then water colored with Sunset ink and a water pen. The sentiment is in two colors. I used Scotch Tape to mask the stamp before inking. That way you can keep the ink off the parts you don't want to stamp. Be sure to take the tape off before stamping!

Very pretty card! Love how you did the small piece of shimmer trim and the bitty sparkles between the sentiment and the image.
