This is another make for the
This is today's colour scheme:
I used greys plus orange and green...
I recently bought Simply Cards and Papercraft #204 magazine and this card is based on an idea in there and used some of the freebies that came with it.
I started by making the background using distress oxides, spritzed on my craft mat and soaked up. I stamped one of the freebie images onto this with black Versafine.
I then spread a clear texture medium through the jar stencil and sprinkled it with orange Color Burst powder.
I added this to two layers of grey papers from my stash.
I used the Distress Oxides to paint more colour onto the stamped image.
I punched more of the background for the sentiment adding Distress around the edges and using a Happy Little Stampers stamp.
With Challenge #407, Color Dare is partnering with Double Trouble Challenge #64
"Let's Brighten the Day"
Thing 1: Trouble Maker
says, "You make me happy when skies are grey, so let's make someone happy with a Kindness or Friendship project (i.e. Get Well, Thinking of You, Thank You, etc.). NO Birthday, Holiday or Celebration projects."
Thing 3: Twisted Sister
says, "Let's start with using any shade of grey and then brighten the day with your choice of TWO additional colors... and NO cheating with more than two additional colors. You are free to use black, white, and silver."

DeleteSusan, very pretty card and colors. The distress oxide background is gorgeous, I love that technique. I have never tried the texture paste with the powders, but that turned out gorgeous too. Perhaps I will try it since I have 12 bottles of the powder just collecting dust. Thank you for sharing with us at Double Trouble!

I love to use Brushos/Color Burst powders but usually I just spritz with water. This was the first time I had tried with the texture paste.
DeleteThis card is fabulous! I love the color burst on the vase!
