Pretty Colors this week

This week Karen has chosen Lovely Lipstick, Mint Macaron & Vanilla as the colors with a side of roses. So, I started with a cream-ish piece of mulberry handmade paper that had been turned into a gelli print with acrylic paint and a Tim Holtz embossing folder. of the three colors I do not have the lipstick color from SU. and so, this is guess work. The rose border is a stamp from The Ink road that was stamped with some versamark on Vanilla and heat embossed with some Ranger Sage powder. which actually looks pretty close in real life to the mint cs. I colored the flowers and leaves with some distress oxide worn lipstick & bundled sage inks and then added some shadows with polychromos pencils. ( I used a reverse confetti stitched hex tag die to cut that) the Penny Black sentiment was stamped on some really old speckled cream su cardstock and cut with a Taylored expressions postage stamp stacklet die, the edges were inked with some Distress Oxide worn lipstick ink. The little heart brad in the top of the tag is unknown, but probably My Minds Eye. ( figured it worked with the sentiment even though the color is a little more faded than the paint) You can find this challenge here to play along. thanks for stopping by.
