I used my aqua brush and ink pads to color my image that was stamped in Jet Black Staz On ink on Whisper White cardstock.
I wanted to use orange ribbon and I only had some from my stash that had some brown in it. I decided the little bit of brown would be okay. This is not one of my favorite cards, but at least I am challenging myself to use colors I would not use. Hee hee!
