Morning. Today at Splitcoast, the challenge is Cool or Warm; to make a card using colours that represent the weather in your area. Well up here in Canada, we are freezing under a cold front with temps at -20C and add the windchill it feels like -30C. My card is a welcome reminder of what's to come this Spring in my garden.
I began my card by stamping the background using grey Memento ink and stamping off before hitting the paper. The flowers were coloured using Memento markers, sprayed with water and stamped a number of times to give a watercoloured look.
I am also adding my card to these challenges:
One Layer Simplicity- RESTOCK (you still have one more day to play)
Little Red Wagon- CLEAN and SIMPLE
CASology- CONTRAST
Stay warm and have a great day!
Supplies: stamps; Unity, Technique Tuesday/ Memento ink/ Memento markers/ twine
