Hey everyone! After all my tech issues related to my computer crashing (no new updates on that since this one <----click) I'm still struggling to get caught up (which is me on a normal day and this has just compounded it a million times). My old Mac is holding up though to me editing and uploading (other than it takes longer as it's slower and I can't multitask like I did before lol) so I am still doing my thing!
Anywho - last week's Color Throwdown Challenge was this:
You can see what the rest of the team created with these colors HERE <-----click! There will be a new challenge up Wednesday morning!! :) :) :)
Here's what I made:
My latest obsession is "what will this look like on kraft?" LOL. I've had the Gansai Tambi Pearl colors for some time now and I've played around with them but I was curious to see how they'd look on Kraft card stock. So I pulled out this WPlus9 Beautiful Bouquets: Ranunculus stamp set and heat embossed it with gold embossing powder on Neenah Desert Storm card stock. I then used the Pearl colors to color it in.
I also used the Pearl colors on the die cut sentiment. I used WPlus9's Basic Greetings dies and die cut some Lawn Fawn Guava card stock that I'd run through my Xyron Sticker Marker. After stacking the sentiments I painted on the coral Pearl watercolor to make it shimmery.
I finished the inside of the card with a heat embossed sentiment from the stamp set, and also heat embossed the Ranunculus image onto a SSS Khaki Woodgrain envelope - LOVE how the gold embossing looks on that envelope with the woodgrain!! <3
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 products have little icons below the image it means there's more than one place it can be purchased. You can hover over the icons and it will tell you what store that link will take you to. 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!
