It’s Thursday and time for our Create with Stamping Friends challenge! This week is a bright color challenge!
MIXED FLORALS
I used the black and white print from Mixed Media Florals Designer Paper and water colored the flowers and leaves. Then I went back and shadowed with the same colors of Stampin’ Blends.
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Petunia Pop cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- The Mixed Media DSP was cut to 4 x 5-1/4 size, then water colored with Smoky Slate, Poppy Parade, Petunia Pop and Shy Shamrock Makers and a Water Painter. Let dry.
- On top of the water coloring, I used the same colors of Stampin’ Blends to highlight and deepen the tones.
- A 1-1/4 x 4 strip of the Shy Shamrock Mixed Media DSP print stamped with the greeting from Mixed Labels in Memento Black Ink. It was added across the front towards the bottom.
- Two stems from Mixed Florals stamp set were stamped with Memento Black Ink on Shy Shamrock cardstock and cut with Mixed Florals Dies. Thy were added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Some Gold Twisted Thread was tied in a bow and added to the stems with a Mini Glue Dot.
- Some Two-Tone Sparkle Gems were added to some flower centers, the leaf stems and next to the greeting for a little bling! You know how much I LOVE these Gems!
Lots of fun using these colors and changing up the look of the black & white DSP print! OK, go check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this challenge over on Create with Stamping Friends.
