dare to be different

Hi there,

this is my card for this week's Colour me ...! Challenge.

Each week we will have a creative colour challenge for you to get crafty and show us your best greeting cards, 3D projects, scrapbooking, digital or traditional paper crafts, costumes, etc. Only the colours we indicate may be used for your project. Neutrals such as black, grey, white, vanilla, skin colours and kraft are also welcome.

This week we are using Tempting Turquoise, Melon Mambo, Calypso Coral & Daffodil Delight  ... have fun!

• create a sky background on watercolor paper using Distress Ink (Salty Ocean); add the clouds by applying water on a Mini Ink Blending Tool through the Hero Arts Cloudy Stencil and dabbing it away with a paper towel
• stamp the line from Lawn Fawn Hello Sunshine with Versafine (Smokey Gray)
• stamp the fun bird from The Alley Way Stamps Priceless Joy with Versafine (Onyx Black) on watercolor paper four times and color the images with Distress Markers (Black Soot, Pumice Stone, Mustard Seed, Ripe Persimmon, Worn Lipstick)
• add Stampendous Crystal Glitter Multi Ultra Fine, Wink of Stella Clear Glitter, Glossy Accents and white gel pen to the pink bird
• stamp the sentiment using Stampendous Tiny Alphabet with Versafine (Onyx Black) on a piece of smooth yellow cardstock
• add the sentiment banner with the help of the Tiny Attacher
• mat the background panel on a piece of black cardstock

Here is a close-up of the pink bird:
