tall flowers. . . .

made shorter!  I just bought the small set of Inktense pencils (12 in the set) and wanted to try coloring with them.  This card is far from perfect (sentiment is not positioned very well, etc.), but I just want a reference of my first attempt with these pencils.  The tall flowers stamps is one of my newest acquisitions also, so I had fun playing with these items.  By mixing the limited colors together you can make other shades, like the purple and peachy hues.  Fun!


Since Simon Says is asking for spring flowers I will enter this over there.

Have a good day!
