Colorful Ketto...

Olo!

I've got a crazy day ahead of me so this post is gonna be a quick one. :)

I'm on a roll with continuing to ink up stamps that haven't gotten much lovin'. This one is Charlotte Ketto from Stamping Bella and while a lot of my Kettos have made it onto cards this was Charlotte's first time. The funky mix of prints on her dress inspired my choice of paper because it had its own upbeat mix of prints and colors going on. The embellishing really is just a random mix of odds and ends that had collected on my desk and I wanted to challenge myself to use that giant flower in a cool way. Using it to mat Charlotte and ground the rest of the embellishments seems to do the trick. ;)

Oh and one more thing before I sign off... the CHA show is coming up this weekend and I've been enjoying many different sneak peeks from various companies but I have yet to find any news about possible new Copic colors being added this year. So if any of you fellow avid colorists out there have heard or seen anything please share! I'm really hoping to see a couple color families fleshed out a bit so I'm keeping my fingers crossed, LOL!

TTYL!
