Crafty Challenge Blog Hop - March 2022 Color Challenge

 

The Crafty Collaborations Team is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world. Each month we participate in several collaborative projects, including Blog Hops, like this one to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our Goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing. 

Today features a Color Challenge using Flirty Flamingo, So Saffron and Blushing Bride.  

I've been playing with water painting to prepare for a class I'm holding at craft retreat. I decided to use this colors with reink drops and water painters on Watercolor paper. 

I didn't like how light the Flirty Flamingo was 'painting on' so I added a few ink drops directly to the paper, which is why you have some splotchy spots. Not what I was looking for, but I decided to work with it. 

Just stamp the flower outline directly onto the water colors and die cut them out. The splotches no longer really matter. The Hand Penned paper has the perfect coordinating pattern and color for the challenge. The card has such a happy look to it, I selected the happy Birthday sentiment from the Celebrating you stamp set.
