This time around, the challenge at As You See It is to fill in the blank.
Tricky, right? I have so many favourite techniques! But the thing I always come back to is playing around with masks and blending brushes. A technique I've used a lot in the last year or so is faux torn paper.
Using a piece of torn photocopy paper as a mask, I've blended together Daffodil Delight, Pear Pizzazz and Garden Green.
Useful tip: use the base of your Stamparatus and the magnets to hold the mask in place while you blend.
After removing the masks, I added in some die cuts: tiny leaves in Granny Apple Green and Daffodil Delight, and a bold swoosh of foliage also in Granny Apple Green.
The embellishments are Faux Sea Glass shapes from the January-June 2022 Mini Catalogue.
You can see what the rest of the Design Team have done with this colour combo and link up your own entry at the As You See It Challenge site.
