XML shape drawable not rendering desired color

In drawable I use this xml code to define the border and background:

<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> 
  <stroke android:width="4dp" android:color="#D8FDFB" /> 
  <padding android:left="7dp" android:top="7dp" 
    android:right="7dp" android:bottom="7dp" /> 
  <corners android:radius="4dp" /> 
  <solid android:color="#f0600000"/> 
</shape> 

I had a similar problem and found that if you remove the size definition, it works for some reason.

Remove:

<size
    android:width="60dp"
    android:height="40dp" />

from the shape.

Let me know if this works!
