Hey everyone!! This week's Color Throwdown went live yesterday:
You can check out the challenge HERE <--------click! to see what the rest of the team created with these colors as well as play along if you'd like!
Here's what I made:
I created a blended background using Distress Oxide inks over Bristol Smooth card stock. I then stamped it with Simon Says Stamp's Stripe Jumble background stamp that I'd "inked up" by lightly misting with water. That was how I got the first background:
I added splatter (of course) and stacked Simon's Sunflower Frame wafer die 3 times to give it dimension.
To get the second background all I did was re-mist the background stamp with water and press on another piece of Bristol Smooth card stock so that it could pick up the remaining ink on the background. I love that I was able to get 2 backgrounds from one piece of ink-blended card stock!
On the second card I used Simon's Carnation Frame wafer die, and on both cards I used sentiments from the Thanks and Encouragement Word Mix 1 set.
I finished off the insides of the cards with sentiments from the Greetings Mix 1 set that I inked up with the same Oxide Inks used on the front and that was it!
To see how these cards came together check out my video below:
