#GDP389: Rainy Day Hello

Another day, another color challenge! This one is from Global Design Project.
 

I've had the Playing in the Rain Bundle out all week, so it was an easy choice as my starting point. I paired it with the Conversation Bubbles Bundle for a different sentiment.
 

A few other details:
  • The paper in the background is the Tea Boutique Designer Series Paper. I love this one because it includes all of the 2022-2024 In Colors!
  • I stamped off for a lighter shade of Tahitian Tide on the clouds.
  • The Raindrops Embossing Folder is the perfect backdrop for that fox with his umbrella.
  • Who knew?! Pumpkin Pie is a great fox color!

Here is a full list of products used on this card:
Stamps: Conversation Bubbles, Playing in the Rain
Ink: Memento Black, Tahitian Tide
Stampin' Blends Markers: Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Tahitian Tide

#TGIFC415: Rainy Days

Color challenges are so much fun, but this one was a bit of a challenge for me! Check out the colors in this week's TGIF Challenges color challenge:
 

I love bright colors, and Bermuda Bay is one of my favorite colors, but this combination just isn't one I would typically use. I think it turned out ok though!
 

I pulled out my Watercolor Pencils to color the image. This particular set includes all three of the colors in the challenge, so it was perfect! You can use these pencils as is, or use a Blender Pen or Water Painter to smooth out the color. I used a Water Painter here.
