It's time for a new Color Challenge! Chris is hosting this week and has chosen the lovely combination of Seaside Spray, Pool Party and Highland Heather, with a dessert option to add bling. While I didn't technically add "bling" my card has lots of shimmer and sparkle!
I love this Hero Arts cover die, with the hillside scene and ornaments, and was excited to use it for this challenge. It was die cut 4 times, 3 out of white card stock and one out of Glitter White card stock, and layered for dimension. Does it ever sparkle! To create the blended panel beneath I started with a piece of Bristol paper, and used the challenge color inks to blend. After drying from a heavy splatter of water, it was sprayed with shimmer spray, then splattered with pearl metallic paint to add a brighter snow effect. After drying again, it was trimmed down and adhered to a Highland Heather card base, then the die cut adhered over top.
Thanks for looking and I hope you'll join the Color Challenge this week!
