It's so great that there are prizes! Oh yeah. Feel free to check out the details below so I can get right to my sample share.
My project today is a quick one. I stamped the Jumbo Calla Lily stamps on mixed media paper and then stared at it for bit. I grabbed two chalks and created the foundation colors. Then I lightened up the petals some more with a lighter color. I switched to the Ergosoft watercolor pencils and added greens to the stems and blues to the background. I did add some scarlet to the centers of the flowers. Now then, I had in my package a few graphite pencils and pigment liners to use so I just started doodling around the flowers. This is too big for a card, but I think it will be a great little framed piece I'll keep in my studio to brighten my day. :)
