Our first color challenge is to use the Summery colors of purple, pink, orange, sky blue and white. I love this bright combination and got started right away on a card. I used the Hero Arts Hand Drawn Flower and watercolored the images with Faber-Castell watercolor pencils. I actually won a bunch of these pencils on Jennifer's blog not too long ago, so I thought it would be appropriate to use them for the first week of camp. :)
I was going to use patterned paper for the scalloped strips but I decided I didn't want to take away from the flowers, so I just used some colored cardstock.
And here's a close-up, showing the dimension of the flowers.
Thanks to Jennifer and Kristina for putting together this fun Card Camp and thank you for stopping by today! Happy camping! :)
