Hello! Thank you for stopping by. I always appreciate the visits.
The Color My Heart Color Dare Challenge #540 is up and ready for you to play along with us. Out of the 5 colors below, you need to use at least 3.
For my card I chose Sapphire, Ballerina and Pine. My card features a stamp set from Pink & Main. This is an older one, I don't even know if it's available anymore. I couldn't find it in the shop. I also used an embossing folder from Spellbinders.
I stamped the image on some watercolor card stock using the MISTI and some Simon Says Intense Black ink. I colored the image using some Zig Real Brush markers and a water brush. I'm glad that I left the stamp in the MISTI because when I was done coloring this image, some of the black bled just a little which didn't hurt the image at all, but I still wanted crisp black lines. So I put it back in, applied some anti-static powder (powder tool from Pink & Main is awesome!) and stamped the image again using VersaFine Black Onyx ink and then heat set with clear embossing powder. I then fussy cut the image out and matted the sentiment portion over a strip of the base card color cardstock and then adhered to a pink embossed panel.
I hope you like my card and that it inspires you to join this color challenge. Which 3 colors will you use? Or will you really challenge yourself to use all 5? Have fun!
