TICKLED PINK

Hey there, I packed up a bunch of stuff and had good intentions on getting in some crafty time on our camping trip this weekend, but that didn't work out as planned.  *sigh*  After we made it home and unpacked yesterday, I broke out the flamingo and hibiscus dies from My Favorite Things.  So much fun to color, and I absolutely love that 3D flower!

The inside circle was sponged with Memento Angel Pink and Rose Bud inks.  Gosh, I can't remember the last time I sponged anything.  I need to break out the inks more often...I really love to sponge!  The flamingo and hibiscus were cut from Neenah Solar White then colored with Copic markers.  The flower was shaped with Susan's Garden Tool Kit...it gives it a very realistic look, don't you think?

COPIC COLORING: 
FLAMINGO:  RV14, RV11, RV10, C6, C2  HIBISCUS:  RV11, RV10  LEAF, FLOWER CENTER:  RV14, RV11, RV10  SHADOW:  C2

Here's the side view that shows the depth of the flower.  The white pipe cleaner (colored with RV10) and Prills were a nice touch for the flower's stamen.

Thanks for stopping by!
