Hero Arts Scramble and Color Throwdown


I made this card in the Hero Arts flickr group scramble with the Color Throwdown colors in mind:



If you not familiar with this - its a real fun thing to do. You have 90 minute to make a card and upload it to the group. I used to play more often in the past, then got sidetracked with blogging..... but this time I made it, yeahh!!

I used all Hero Arts stamps for this card, masked off the center flower and colored some of the petals with Inktense pencils. Some enamel dots and that's it - really fast, but sunny and spring -like!
By the way, we had the first spring like day on Saturday- melted away a lot of the snow. It was gorgeous!
