Hello everyone! This week's Color Throwdown challenge is a fun one:
Check out what the rest of the team created with these colors here <-----click! and play along if you'd like! All the info about participating is on the CTD blog.
Here's what I came up with:
I pulled out the new SSS Dancing Fruits stamp set, and after masking and stamping the outline images on Distress watercolour paper I decided to watercolour them with Distress Oxide inks.
The background was also created with Distress Oxide ink - I smushed it onto a transparency then sprayed it with water before pressing it all over the smooth side of a piece of Distress watercolour paper.
After I finished the card I decided to add some shiny details using my Clear Pico Embellisher - it's similar to Glossy Accents except that it's a much thinner (aka more "watery") consistency. So you won't get the really raised and glossy effect like you do with Glossy Accents - but it dries a lot faster which I really like.
I finished off the inside of the card by stamping the fruit images with the same Distress Oxide inks that I used to color in the images and that was it!
To see how this card came together check out my video below:

I get asked a lot about where to purchase the supplies I use in my videos and blog posts. I list all the supplies I use at the end of my posts (below) or in the description box directly below my video on YouTube. If the product images have sets of letters below the image it means there's more than one place it can be purchased. SSS = Simon Says Stamp, AZ = Amazon, MFT = My Favourite Things, SnS = Scrap N Stamp (Canada) etc. Compensated affiliate links used when possible at no extra cost to you. Affiliate linking is what keeps my blog and YouTube channel up and running and enables me to work from home with my kids! I appreciate your support more than words can say!
I occasionally receive product for free from stores/manufacturer with no obligation on my part to use/review - I only use and share what I personally love. Everything else I purchase myself!
