DOStamper STARs Thursday Challenge #232: Flourish Thinlets Color Wash

Welcome to this weeks DOStamper Stars Thursday Color Challenge #232. This week we are having a "Color My World" Challenge highlighting Melon Mambo, Old Olive and Crushed Curry. I used the three ink colors to create a color wash on my card layer and added die cut flowers using the Flourish Thinlits in coordinating cardstock colors. I think it is a lovely card.

Card Measurements: 

 

Basic Black base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4

Shimmery White layer 5 1/4 x 4

Vellum strip 1 x 4

Basic Black sentiment strip 5/8 x 3 1/2

Tip: Pinterest has several video examples of the Color Wash technique, I suggest you go there and find the technique that works best for you.  I took ink directly from ink pad and onto the paper with my aqua painter, making sure my aqua painter was not overly wet.  Shimmery White or Watercolor paper works best for this technique. Once I had the right amount of ink on the paper I let it dry for a bit and then flattened under a heavy book.

Thanks for stopping by my blog, Tea and Stamps, today. I hope you enjoyed viewing my project featuring Flourish Thinlets die with a color wash background.  If you would like learn more about the technique I used leave me a comment and you can also "Follow by Email"  or  become one of my "Followers" to keep up with my latest creations.

FMS 284 - Dragonfly Dreams

It has been ages since I joined a Freshly Made Sketches challenge #284  This week I could not resist and I had make this card using the masking technique.  So easy to do and it add a unique background to the card. 

• Start with Whisper White card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 
• Layers Basic Black 4 1/8 x 5 3/8, Whisper White 4 x 5 1/4
• Mask off center of  Whisper White layer & fill in with Smoky Slate ink using sponge brayer
• Stamp random images from Timeless Textures & Awesomely Artistic sets in Basic Gray ink  
• Die cut  2 dragonflies from the Detailed Dragonfly Thinlets set & cover with Wink of Stella  
• Added a Metallic Enamel Shapes for interest
• Adhere layers & attach to card base
• Due to the size of the dragonflies I choose not to add a sentiment as per the sketch 

I chose the colors Basic Black, Basic Gray and Smoky Slate so I can present this card on the current Color Your World FaceBook page challenge.  Wild colors to pick for springtime.
