Hi everyone! Are you ready for some fabulous new colors for the new Color Throwdown challenge? It's aqua, kraft, gold and cream happening this week with Amy Rysavy as our hostess. I had an old panel of aqua and gold alcohol inks in my stash so that was my starting point. I recently bought the monstera leaf die set from The Greetery which I loved!
To add texture, I used a torn, crimped piece of cardboard and stenciled the base panel with Peacock Feathers distress ink with a script stencil onto rustic cream paper.
STAMPS: Birthday Your Way (Papertrey Ink).
INK: Peacock Feathers distress; Alcohol inks.
PAPER: Yupo; Rustic Cream (PTI); Metallic Gold; Kraft.
DIES: Birthday Your Way (PTI); Large Leaves: Monstera (The Greetery).
OTHER: Script stencil (PTI).
On a side note, I recently spotted a beautiful variegated monstera type of plant - about 2 feet tall - at a local nursery for a mere $250.00!! 😲 At that price, I will stick to my paper monstera leaves! Thanks for stopping by! ~Wanda
