Color Throwdown #727

 

It's Wednesday and that means a new Color Throwdown challenge is up and running! Lori is hosting and has chosen pink, green and mustard colors. I knew I wanted to "think spring" and created a bouquet of  tulips using Papertrey Ink's Into the Blooms: Tulip die set. I die cut all the floral pieces and leaves from Bristol Smooth Surface paper, then squished the distress ink colors onto my glass mat, spritzed with water and "painted" the different pieces.

After all the florals were dry, I splattered water over it all using a paint brush. The mottled effect adds an element of texture. 

STAMPS: Tag It Minis (Papertrey Ink).

INK: Mustard Seed, Fossilized Amber, Kitsch Flamingo, Picked Raspberry, Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn, Peeled Paint distress inks (Ranger); Versafine Clair Nocturne (Tsukineko). 

PAPER: Bristol Smooth Surface; White.

DIES: Border Bling: Blooming Hearts, Into the Blooms: Tulips, Tag It Minis (Papertrey Ink).

OTHER: Ribbons. 

 

We'd love to have you play along! Happy stamping!  ~Wanda
