Happy hump day everyone! Broni is the Color Throwdown Challenge hostess this week and has a warm and happy color palette that I just love!! Two new stamp sets by Papertrey Ink were calling my name to get inky: Peonies on Parade and Scripted. Love that both sets also have coordinating dies!
Next time, I will use watercolor paper instead of heavy weight cardstock when using an Aquapainter and distress inks. I didn't accomplish the color variation that I wanted. :-( The striped background is a large background stamp by MFT that I stamped 3 times using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and my trusty MISTI. Remember those dew drops that were all the rage many years ago? I decided to dig into my archives and adhered them with SU's fine tip glue pen.
STAMPS: Peonies on Parade (PTI), Scripted (PTI), Diagonal Stripes BG (MFT).
INK: Squeezed Lemonade, Mustard Seed, Crushed Olive, Peeled Paint, Spiced Marmalade, and Carved Pumpkin distress inks by Tim Holtz; Memento Tuxedo Black.
