If I really had to pick the "beer" pocket would pick daisies and the "champagne" taste would pick orchids. Since I only have Gerbera Daisies from Flourish (which is not the plain beautiful daisy I love) and I don't have the orchid stamp set - I decided to select a flower that I have loved coloring - zinnias!!
I am totally pleased with how this card came out. Rarely do I used red...so this was definitely a challenge for me. This paper is just too fabulous. I hope you like it! For the layout I used the fabulous sketch from The Deconstructed Sketch. I didn't get this completed in time for their challenge, but that's okay. I really liked the sketch.
I am also entering this card into The Dare to Get Dirty challenge by Lisa Henke & Jessie Knight Rone. These may be the only challenges I get to complete. Sorry, not allowed tell you what the challenges are all about. You need to be a Fan Club Member at Splitcoast Stampers.
Thanks for stopping by. Have an awesome day!!

WOW! Theresa, this is stunning! I love how you've used those papers and your colouring is awesome!
From my blog-surfing, it seems red is a really challenging colour for shading, etc. I think you've done an incredible job of it! This is gorgeous :) I loved reading about your different choices. I think my beer choice would be carnations, and my champagne choice would be...ooh, I don't even know! Yellow roses? Actually, a friend gave me a green rose for my birthday last year, and that was pretty incredible :)
Gorgeous, Theresa! Love your mix of DPS....
This is stunning Theresa and you have done an amazing job with the colouring. My favourite flowers are freesias. xx
