I am much more comfortable using stencils for my coloring but what the heck let’s give coloring a whirl. Using the freebie coloring sheets from Altenew, I decided on this print and started coloring (not shading) but coloring with markers, and pencils and then sparkly wink of stella. Since I was coloring I decided to color the entire background with a black marker. Added a punched butterfly and gold embossed greeting. I do wish my greeting was more yellow than gold but ???? it was on and there was no turning back. Check out the Altenew website for their free coloring sheets 2 floral images per pdf and 4 different freebies.
My card today will be entered into the
Triple B: August Challenge Anything goes as long as you use either a butterfly, bird or blooms or any combination of them. I was inspired by the color on their mood board.
Thanks for stopping in for a peek. I appreciate you and your time. Take care, be safe and stay cool.

This is beautiful! I didn’t know they had free coloring sheets. Will take a look.
This is so striking, and your coloring looks great! Pretty card!!
Yes their freebie coloring pages are awesome and you’ve showcased this one beautifully! How odd to color in the background like that but makes it even more striking! Well done my friend! Thanks so much for joining in the fun at our Triple B challenge! Good Luck and we hope you’ll come back often.

SO BEAUTIFUL!!! Your coloring looks great. I’ll have to check out the free coloring sheets.
Thanks, Gerry.
Love that you set those gorgeous blooms off with black
Thanks, Bonnie, it seemed to be the right direction to showcase the yellow flowers.
Beautiful and your colouring looks great. I like that you coloured the background as it makes the flowers so striking.
Thanks, Johanna.
Very pretty. Coloring the background in black takes a lot of time, but really makes the flowers pop.
Fantastic job on your coloring! I love the black background. Your gold sentiment is really pretty and being gold it’s just enough different to stand out.
