This old card was done with the white crayon resist technique....I know for me, the white crayon was always the only one that was still pristine and untouched while all the rest of my crayons were well-used. So here's an idea to use the white crayon too--stamp on glossy white cardstock (might work on regular cardstock, I don't know?) and use the crayon to draw in highlights, then sponge ink over. Easy peasy.
Welllll I thought this flashback was going to be a lot longer, but somehow that's the only old sample I had! So here's my all-new card for today:
I used last week's SCS sketch challenge and this week's Color Throwdown, and this card came together in maybe 15 minutes. I was tempted to swap out the Soft Sky for my personal favorite Baja Breeze, but I was a good girl and stuck to the challenge colors. Although the way my photo turned out it almost looked like I used Baja Breeze anyway, hmph. The ribbon is pale pink; I'm not real sure where it came from since I found it in a bag of loose ribbon and I thought it might look okay on here. It seems a teensy bit heavier than SU's taffeta ribbon, but who knows where I got it. Anyway, here's the color challenge:
That's a beautiful inspiration pic too. I had fun using Regal Rose again, I miss that color.
Thanks for stopping by today, and have a great weekend! I'm off to work on another scrapbook layout so I actually meet my goal of 10 pages for January :)
