Freshly Made Sketches

***Scroll on down for my Color Throwdown post***

A quick post for the Freshly Made Sketches challenge where Kim has a fun layout for us! I LOVE the new Risen stamps and dies just released this month at Ink to Paper! The cross can be stamped so quickly and then popped and layered to give it great dimension.  I started with stenciling a concentric circle pattern using Squeezed Lemonade distress oxide ink and a blender brush. 

I paired up Squeezed Lemonade with Mustard Seed and Twisted Citron with Mowed Lawn. I first covered the stamp with the lighter color then tapped the darker shade lightly over only portions of the stamp to "kiss" a bit of different color onto the image. The green strips are washi tape. This would be an easy design to mass produce!

STAMPS: Risen (Ink to Paper).

DIES: Risen (Ink to Paper).

OTHER: Washi tape (Altenew); Concentric Circles stencil (My Favorite Things).
