I saw a color challenge that I couldn’t resist this week at Inspire. Create. Challenge.

I’ve been playing with watercoloring, pencil coloring and alcohol marker coloring for what seems like forever. I decided to take a break and make a nice quick card with my MISTI and some Altenew goodies.
Here is what I came up with:
This was a color challenge this week and I always find those challenges to be the most challenging of all. It is often hard to limit myself to just the colors that someone else picks out.
For my card, I used Altenew inks in Sweet Leaf, Hunter Green and Pink Pearl. I added some details with a coordinating marker to give the floral image more dimension than it had as just a stamped image. I also added some clear Wink of Stella and Pretty Pink Posh clear sequins for some sparkle.
I used Altenew’s Wish Big stamp and the Sunlit Flowers stamp set to complete the card.
I LOVE this sentiment. One fabulous stamp that gives your sentiment a lot of impact. It’s like wearing that one statement necklace with a really plain top and jacket. It’s the WOW in your ensemble. That’s how I feel about this sentiment!
I don’t know if you can tell, but I practiced my drop shadow technique on the flowers to give them that dimension, along with a little shading with the marker. I think the flower pops a lot more than it did before I added that detail.
Thank you for stopping by! Keeping it clean and simple today with one layer! Less supplies to clean up afterwards…a huge plus!
