Lillies

Here's a card for the Less is More challenge week 61 where the 'Lucky Dip' theme is based on a Design Seeds colour scheme.

I have to admit I follow Design Seeds on facebook - they're a great source of colour combinations especially those I wouldn't normally use. This one made me think of flowers.


I've embossed the Elusive Images/Chocolate Baroque Lillies in silver, painted with Twinkling H20s in two tone pinks and greens and then added a sentiment.

Thanks for taking the time to look.

    What a lovely idea Elaine to emboss in silver before colouring. It's very effective!
