CR84FN21- Live With Zest

The CR84FN21 challenge this week has some beautiful rich colors: garnet, cream and chartreuse. 

I finally broke down and picked up a set of the Hampton Arts images that goes with the Graphic 45 papers. I have been wanting a few of the sets and finally decided to pick up the Dixie Band set.


The background was created by overlapping two of the images from the set. Color the images using watercolor pencils and aqua brushes. The sentiment is from Hero Arts.

 The lovely photos for this week are courtesy of Adam at Embrace Life Photo



For all the details on the challenge this week go to the CR84FN blog.

  7. Love this, Suzanne! That background is so awesome - I was trying to figure out if they had made a companion background stamp for that set, but it's your own creation and it's fab. I think this is one of the few remaining sets of that series that I don't have.... and I think you have just enabled me, LOL! Beautiful inspiration.
