I'm playing along with the Color Throwdown challenge today. I was inspired by the ice cream photo and the lovely colours. I started by die cutting, from white card, three squares using the Lawn Fawn Stitched Squares dies. I stamped an ice cream from the Altenew Way Too Sweet stamp set on each square, using Versafine… Continue reading Color Throwdown #396

I used pumice stone distress ink. As distress inks aren't really meant for stamping, it gives a much looser watercolour style to the image.

I chose the third colour palette and finally made the card. One of the leaf stamps from the WPlus9 Doodle Buds stamps… Continue reading Retro Print Card
