Happy Friday, everyone! Here is my card for this week's color challenge at StampTV. I used images from my new set, Warm With Love, and added a little accent with Bring the Bling.
The colors this week are Sweet Mango, White and the brand new Pure Luxury color, Wild Lilac. I used Wild Lilac for my card base. Such a beautiful color!
I used Copics to color the swan, starting with N7.
Added N5.
Filled in with N3.
For the beak, I used R02.
Next, I cut a piece of Pure Luxury White card stock with oval Nestabilities and sponged while still in the die, using Memento Lulu Lavender.
I used sticky notes to mask the top portion, and sponged Memento Grape Jelly.
Stamped the swan, using Memento Tuxedo Black (I don't know what that Grape Jelly ink pad is doing in there)
I stamped the grass using Memento Tangelo. I used the sicky not to keep the bottom from extending too far below the swan image.
Added the swan I had cut out and colored, using Pop Dots.
For the larger rectangle, I sponged Memento Lulu Lavender.
Sponged lightly with Memento Grape Jelly.
I used two of the bling images, stamped with Memento Grape Jelly.
Stamped the fern image with Lulu Lavender a few times in the corner.
I layered with Pure Luxury Sweet Mango, Black Onyx and used a Wild Lilac card base. The sentiment is also from Warm With Love. I used Crystal Lacquer to add shine and dimension to the bling.
Thanks for visiting. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
