Color Throwdown

 Happy hump day everyone! Monika has a really yummy combo for the Color Throwdown Challenge this week! Don't you just love that sunset photo? I thought I'd pull out my Delightful Dahlia set and create some 3 step stamped flowers.

I started with adding some texture to the card base using Liquitex modeling paste and MFT's fishnet stencil.  Then the boo boos began!  It was originally an A2 card until I smeared some orange Stickles on the lower left corner.  It then morphed into a tall and skinny card - 3 1/2" x 5 1/2". :-)  I then went to stamp the sentiment and...yep...you guessed it!  I didn't have it perfectly straight, so had to go to plan B and add the sentiment flag!  Moral of the story...be patient - lol!  I was still happy with the outcome since it's going to the mother of a coworker who is celebrating a 94th birthday this week.
