It's the first Tuesday in June (WHAT???) and we have a new color combo for you over at the CAS Colours and Sketches challenge blog. The colors were chosen by Samantha and I think I'm in love.
I used one large floral stamp and a three colored pencils to create my focal image.
As you can see, I used a very light touch with my pencils. I had one blue, one green and one white in a mix of Prismacolor and Polychromos. Here's a closer look-see.
I stamped the outline and sentiment in black pigment ink, colored in the image, added the panel to a card front made with Neenah Desert Storm 110 lb card stock and then finished it off with a few clear droplets as accents.
While I had the stamp out I decided to try a similar card front on kraft card stock. The blue pencil wasn't showing up anywhere near the Pool Party color so I scrapped the color challenge theme and went with some darker accents in a different shade of blue pencil. We'll just call it this one a Bonus Card. :-)
Supplies:
Altenew Delicate Bouquet floral stamp
Altenew Super Script sentiment stamp set
Assorted colored pencils
Neenah cardstock in 110 lb Solar White and 110 lb Desert Storm
HoneyBee Stamps - clear droplets
I'm curious. Colors aside, which card do you prefer? The white panel or the kraft panel? I honestly can't choose. I love them both. (Am I allowed to say that? *blush*)
I hope to see your card in our gallery this week!
Stay safe and healthy my friends!

I love both cards!!!
ReplyDeleteTwo beautiful cards! Since we're both rebels anyway, I may just like the second one a teeny bit more. ;)
ReplyDeleteI always love seeing people use the same stamp different ways - it's interesting and also appeals to my thriftier side! I love the two looks you've achieved here - they are beautiful!
