Pretty pink posy

I had a wee day off today for my other half's birthday, so after recovering from a lovely lunch out, I decided to get my pencils out and play along with Kathy's colouring challenge over at the Daily Marker.

I used my favourite floral image from Whipper Snapper - coloured with watercolour pencils.  I added some Wink of Stella to the pink flowers ... I'm getting a bit mean and sparing with using it now as it's nearly empty :(
DP from Lili of the Valley, though I think they've discontinued it now.  Dienamics scribble die and embroidered frame.
I haven't added a sentiment as I couldn't figure out where to put it, so I decided it didn't need one at all!

ETA: Top 3 at Creative Card Crew :)

This card is so softly colored and pretty! It could be used for so many occasions. I like to make cards now and then with no sentiment on the front. Glad you googled the Winter Carnival. It's quite the celebration. Since it always falls on my birthday, we always go as part of my birthday celebration.

Ruby is so cute! We have a Chihuahua named Lily! I believe you are right -- your card is perfectly pink without a sentiment! grin!

Lovely shade of pink you've used here Lynne - and great colouring. So disappointed that LOTV have discontinued all their lovely paper and art pads :-(
