MIX162 Primary Warmth

Photo Details

Poster: Cook22

It was snowing when DH left the house this morning - so glad I'm on a day off. I added warmth to my morning with Lydia's Primaries MIX challenge.
Stamped the flower, masked it and stamped the stem, then the grid using Smokey Grey. I used pencils for colouring, blending blues and yellow to get the green stem. Then I put the mask back and stamped Wonderfully Worn with Broken China, and the little spatter from Timeless Textures with Liquid Pearls. Serendipity, the gap in the grid was just perfect to position the stamped sentiment. The die-cut has a light dusting of Stickles, but light conditions here aren't exactly bright today!

Isn't it amazing how much interest you can pack into a one layer card. I love this! So much to look at.

The primaries couldn't look more lovely than mixed to bring forth this beautiful cone flower (I had many in my Virginia garden). Using the liquid pearl was a great idea to add even more texture, interest, and dimension as well. Well done, Sabrina!

You sure created a bright burst of spring to counter act your snow day. I love your hand drawn border. The liquid perals add so much interest and texture. Beatiful creation.

Love your card, it is such an artsy look and I like that you blended your primaries to get green.

Wow - this is fantastic - I love the collage style - and the warm pearls - that is gorgeous! I haven't used those in a while. Beautiful card.
