This
month's blog hop at Papertrey Ink offered up inspiration pictures with
non traditional colour combinations.
What a pretty combination this one is! I don't tend to gravitate towards the pinks but had fun combining them with turquoise shades. I took thin strips of Raspberry Fizz, Hibiscus Burst, Hawaiian Shores and Aqua Mist and glued them down with thin strips of
Tombo Mono Multi - this glue rocks because one of the nibs is super tiny, allowing for narrow strips or small dollops of adhesive.
I stamped the Holiday Lights' line of lights with Fresh! Navy ink and then stamped the stars in Fuschia and the bulbs in
Jenni Bowlin Speckled Egg. I chose a Think Big sentiment for a repeat of the Navy ink.
After all the stamping, I ran it through with the canvas impression plate a couple of times - this adds great texture without being too overpowering. Some
Stickles and
Liquid Pearls and that's it!

Misc: PTI Canvas impression plate,
