Addicted to Stamps and More! (ATSM #58) - Color Challenge witha Twist

Hello dear friends and followers - so nice of you to visit me today!  I have been so busy at work and summer seems to be slipping right by me.  Spent a wee bit of time in the yard this past weekend gardening (that translates to pulling weeds - hehe).  It was nice to feel the sunshine on my face :o)

So... here it is time for another challenge at ATS&M.  This week we have a color challenge for you to use - take a look:
Our sponsor for the next 3 weeks is Nicecrane Designs who has such amazing images of all themes, elements and styles (pre-colored as well).  The twist to our challenge this week is that if you use a Nicecrane Designs image you can use any color scheme you want (almost like an anything goes with Nicecrane Designs).  Ignacio has provided fabulous prizes for the next three weeks for each of our Winners. Check out the challenge site for more details and a link to the Nicecrane Designs website.   

In honor of Ignacio at Nicecrane Designs I've chosen to use one of his digital images with the colors from our challenge. I really love how this turned out. I hope you will too! 
To allow the image to have the main focus, I decided not to use any embellishments.  Printed the image with black ink and colored in the grey and daffodil delight.  Isn't this sweet?  I remember that wonderful feeling of rocking my babies.  Will really enjoy having grandkids and being able to experience that again (although that better be a bit down the road yet).  

Hope you will decide to join us this week at Addicted to Stamps and More! for our Color Challenge #58 With a Twist.  There is a link to Nicecrane Designs blog and store on the challenge site.  The other lovely ladies on the ATS&M DT have also made some gorgeous creations for your inspiration - click here to visit them and enter our challenge. 

Til next time lovelies...hugs and happy crafting! D

    A great use of these colours. I think they are quite tricky but you've made it look easy!
