hello dahlia...

Wanting to tackle the Tuesday Morning Sketch for this week,  I rummaged through my stash box and found a dahlia and leaf I hadn't colored and a "hello" that a friend gave me when she cleaned out her stash...I took a doily that I had used for a bridal shower and scallop-circle cut the center of it.  I backed it with a plain white scallop the same size out of cs so that it wouldn't show the dots on the panel.   I printed a free downloadable paper that was a purple grey with cream dots on it, it matched the hello.   I decided to color the dahlia and leaf with colored pencils in pinks and greens..  I then took a purple grey sharpie and colored 3 Su pearls.   With the beautiful DSP out there I probably won't fool with downloading paper too much...it was a bit of hassle, I probably just don't know what I'm doing!    I also linked to Simon Says Wednesday Challenge.   Thanks for stopping by,   Kathy
