JAI302 and FMS227

The colour challenge  at Just Add Ink this week is an interesting one, using two purples and a neutral.


I'm pairing it up with the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches, which I adore - it's my kind of sketch!





I did discover that, when sponged lightly, Blackberry Bliss and Rich Razzleberry are almost indistinguishable. It's Blackberry Bliss sponged around the edge of the masked music stamp and the edges of the white panel which works well to link the two purples. 

I also can't quite believe that finally, I've taken a photo where the Wink of Stella did show! It's on the underwing of the dragonfly.

Update: So pleased that this card got an Honourable Mention at Just Add Ink.

Ingredients
Card: Whisper White, Tip Top Taupe, Rich Razzleberry, DSP from the Moonlight stack.
Stamps: Heidi Swapp Music, Clearly Besotted Say it in Style
Inks: Blackberry Bliss, Tip Top Taupe
Other: Spellbinders Dragon Delight die, clear Wink of Stella, rhinestones, dimensionals, sponges

  4. Jan, your card is lovely! The music notes look fabulous masked and sponged. I too found the Blackberry and Razzleberry quite similar when I was water colouring my card for this challenge. Glad it wasn't only me. Thanks for sharing with us once again at Just Add Ink. x
