Hey everyone! This week's Color Throwdown Challenge went live yesterday:
You can check out what the rest of the team made with these colors HERE <-------click! and play along yourself if you'd like!
Here's what I made:
I gold heat embossed the faceted heart image from Simon Says Stamp's Botanical Heart stamp set onto some Distress watercolor paper. I then coloured it in using Candied Apple Distress Ink and a detail water brush. I then did some ink smooshing onto scraps of the same Distress watercolor paper using the Candied Apple Distress Ink, and the new Kitsch Flamingo Distress Ink. Once those were dry I die cut smaller hearts from the pieces using dies from the Botanical Heart coordinating wafer die set.
I die cut the thanks word from Simon's Small Script Trio wafer die set using black card stock and stacked 3 together to give it the dimension I like. I then gold heat embossed one of the sentiments from the Botanical Heart stamp set onto white card stock and ink blended the Kitsch Flamingo Distress Ink over it to make it match.
On the inside of the card I stamped another sentiment from the Botanical Heart stamp set and added a trio of the ink smooshed hearts die cut with the Botanical Heart wafer dies. I added a Metallic Schoolhouse Red envelope to finish it off and that was it!
