Sentimental Sundays: Paint/Inks

DSC05079

Hello hello! It’s a great day for those of you who like to get their fingers inky! This week at Sentimental Sundays we are challenging you to use “Paints/Inks”. For my card, I have used both inks and paints.

For the red background, I have used Fried Brick, Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed and Aged Mahogany. I might be missing a couple of shades here…

I spritz the red background with water and diluted yellow water colours. For the Cheery Lynn doily I used Crushed Olive and I don’t remember the darker shade :/ sorry

I applied a bit of white holographic glitter and added some green bling.

You can see how cool the background looks up close. I also added a few dots here and there with my gold marker.

Thank you for stopping by people! I hope you can drop by Sentimental Sundays blog and check out the bonus challenge this week for an extra entry.

I absolutely adore how you use such bold colours on your cards - they look fabulous! I'm not brave enough to use such a vast palette and I'm VERY jealous! ;)
