Color Challenge from JUGS #250

Hi again and thanks for coming by!  Today Vicki at Just Us Girls has a great color challenge for us today!  It's turquoise, green and lime!  Super summer colors, don't ya think?
 I've been in a coloring mood lately, so I stamped some Magnolia images that had never seen ink and this is one of them-Tilda with Love Cake. My Magnolias have come from Magnolia-licious here in the US.  Diana gives great customer service and gets the new collections quickly!  She also offers a couple of different discounts when  you order!
Tilda is stamped on Xpress it Blending card and colored with copics.  I use Just4FunCrafts color charts for help with color choices these days. It's quick to find a color I want and then I just grab those copics.  Here's the link to my Board on Pinterest so you can check out her site.
 I love using the random pearls, but I'm so bad at placement. How is it that other crafters use just the right numbers of dots or pearls in just the right places?!  Perhaps I used too many so I kill the effect?? I also love how the MFT pierced and stitched dies look on a card.  They are great!! My dp is from Papertrey Ink-Hawaiin Shores, Simply Chartreuse, and Limeade Ice.
Please check out ALL the inspiration on the Just Us Girls Blog (you won't be sorry!) and if you have some crafting time this week we sure hope you'll try our colors and show us your creation!
Again, my appreciation for stopping by!! Cheryl
