Allsorts this week is Fairies, Fantasy and Magical and while I was thinking about that, I noticed the challenge at Sunday Stamps is to use 3 of the colours on the photo below, plus one neutral, so I combined them…
…to make this
The above is a photo and this is a scan – the true colours are more in between the two, but the photo shows the different shades of pink more clearly
I used three shades of Distress Oxides and Distress Inks; Spun Sugar, Tattered Rose and Victorian Violet, then coloured the wings with similar shades on Promarkers, using a Spun Sugar reinker for the palest pink. It’s mounted on grey, then on a Dusky pink card.
I painted Ice Stickles onto the wings and the stars, so I’m also linking to
Sparkle ‘n’ Sprinkle Creative Challenges and
Creations in Pink – Mainly Pink
Make My Monday have a Non Traditional Christmas colours challenge, as do
Dare 2B Artsy are looking for Winter creations
So I made these…
Yes,I have a ‘thing’ for grey at the moment…
Mix it Up are asking for NO STAMPS (eek!)
and
Creatalicious are Anything Goes + optional stencil
I used Irridescent Stencil Paste through my stencil, then sprayed over the sponged Distress Ink background with Mica sparkle spray (home made) before adding the die cut Joyeux Noel.
I’m also linking to SSS Wednesday’s Anything Goes challenge.
Thank you for popping by….
Back soon

Wow, a gorgeous way to feature our colors - a beautiful sentiment and image, and the touches of sparkly are perfect! Thanks so much for playing at Sunday Stamps!
love your selection of cards, the two for the challenge at MMM, certainly fit the bill, thanks for your entries
It is amazing how the same card can look so different depending on how it is presented. The photo and the scan show up the differences. I can spend ages taking a picture of a card all round the house just trying to get the true colours. Your first card here is lovely though and you've captured the colours from the chart perfectly. hugs Mrs A.
