Colour Me...! Creative - Week 5 - with a GIVEAWAY!

Hey friends, it's Wednesday and that means it's time for another awesome challenge at Colour Me...!  This week, since it's the 5th week of the month you choose any 5 colors you want to work with.  This made me think of a rainbow color combination so I decided to make my own watercolor background.

My 5 colors: Real Red, Tangerine Tango, Daffodil Delight, Lucky Limeade and Tempting Turquoise 


Here's this week's inspiration photo:


Check out the great inspiration from the other team members and link up your creations, too!  I can't wait to see your goodies in the gallery!

      Hey Angelina, thanks for the sweet comment! To make the background I used watercolor paper, then smooshed versamark through a polka dot stencil and embossed the dots in white. Then watercolored right over the top of it. :) Thanks for asking!
