I cannot stop doing these rainbow coloured backgrounds, stamping then colouring with pencils. I hope your not getting sick of looking at these types of cards because I cant promise this will be the last one because I am just enjoying doing them way tooooooo much.
Just check out the colours of my garden, it's another magical garden with flowers half one colour and half another colour. I first blended Distress Oxides, a mix of light and bright rainbow colours then flicked a bit of water here and there. Once it was dry I stamped and white embossed this wonderful 'The Ton' stamp 'Riotous Wildflowers' which I have stamped on so many mediums ready to colour & paint when I get home.
I this instance I have coloured with pencils over the Distress Oxides each time using a dark pencil colour then the white to brighten and lighten the colour. When colours meet and blend I did the same with my pencils.
I decided to do a long panel for this card so did silver glitter washi each end of the card and finished off with a MFT 'Hugs' diecut.
Another card I just love the look of. I am falling in love with this style though it is harder on my hands having the ink behind is just amazing.
My next experiment will be with a non floral card, I'm looking forward to that.
Challenges:
Without the twist.
Pencils because they work so perfectly over Distress Oxides
and the colours look so amazing over the Distress Oxides and
I just get such a buzz out of looking at the finished image.
