Hi friends! I took advantage of a gloomy rainy day yesterday to put together a card for this week's Paper Players challenge. Check it out...
I don't use purple very often, so this was definitely a challenge for me. My color of choice option is platinum. I reached for my DeNami hydrangea stamp and poured on the Ranger Liquid Platinum embossing powder! The blooms are colored with a water brush and the leaves filled in with WOS.
My parents will be celebrating their anniversary next month. I think this will find it's way into their mailbox!

Your card caught my eye immediately! My hydrangeas look exactly like this right now! Beautiful soft watercoloring and I love the platinum! Thanks for playing along over at The Paper Players this week!
Oh my goodness Lisa, that is one challenging color combo. But you rocked it! Just the right hint of purple to give it a sweetness. Lovely!
This is pretty Lisa and your watercolouring onto the mint cardstock has created perfect hydrangea colouring - bravo!! Thanks for joining us over at The Paper Players this week!
Gosh, this is beautiful, Lisa ... love how you used the blackberry over the mint ... it has a lovely transparency about it ... delicate, dreamy and gorgeous with the platinum! Hugs, Anita :)
Beathtaking, Lisa! What a gorgeous way to use these colors, especially with that platinum EP and I'll bet the WOS really adds beautiful shimmer! Just lovely, my friend! Thanks for sharing this with us at the Paper Players this week!
Using this wonderful minty card stock was the perfect choice for your platinum stamped hydrangea, Lisa! I love the little tinge of it on my favorites in nature! Just the right touch of purple, in all the right places! xx

Watercoloring the purple onto the green made such beautiful hydrangeas, Lisa, and the platinum embossing makes them stand out from the background. It's a wonderful card I'm sure your parents will love.
