50 Shades of Pink
Found a new Challenge blog this week called In the Pink
Their very first Challenge is 50 shades of Pink.
Now this is a colour I am not comfortable using, so this was a challenge for me.
However I think I might just be changing my mind in future.
The layers are Kanban cardstock, the remains of an assorted pack that I kept pushing to the bottom of the pile because it was pink
.To colour the webbing, I used Victorian velvet distress ink to lightly shade it.
The image is a Hobby Art stamp, embossed with pink powder and coloured with watercolour paints.
Thank you for stopping by to take a look.
I always appreciate your comments.
