#GDP353: Color Challenge

This week's challenge at Global Design Challenge is a color challenge.

Aren't those colors beautiful together?! I pulled out an oldie but goodie stamp set for this challenge - the Whale Done stamp set.

 

This card is pretty sweet and simple, and I didn't use nearly as much Blackberry Bliss as I thought I would - that rich, deep purple is one of my favorites! The Iridescent Pearls make perfect bubbles, and I love that little heart stamp as a subtle background on the card base.

 

 

Here is a full list of products used on this card:

Stamps: Whale Done

Ink: Blackberry Bliss, Bermuda Bay, Soft Sea Foam

Paper: Soft Sea Foam, Bermuda Bay, Basic White

Embellishments: Iridescent Pearls

Adhesives: Stampin' Seal+, Stampin' Dimensionals

Happy Stamping!

#GDP250: Watercolor Whale

I am featuring the Whale Done Bundle this week over on my Facebook page, and recently I've seen a few purple whales pop up in our demonstrator group. I love purple, so I decided to try it out on my own card. I used the sketch challenge at Global Design Project as my other inspiration.

A couple of details - I watercolored with Highland Heather ink on Watercolor Paper, and then punched the whale out after it dried. Although I really hate using liquid glue, it's what I would recommend for piecing together the whale. Those pieces are just too little for glue dots! The tiny heart in 'LOVE' is a stamp in the Whale Done stamp set. I fussy cut it and added it on top of the 'O'. 

I kind of love Misty Moonlight with the soft purples. Magenta Madness was my favorite new color at the beginning, but I think Misty Moonlight might be taking its place. Here is the color combination I used.

Stamps: Whale Done
Ink: Highland Heather
Paper: Misty Moonlight, Purple Posy, Whisper White, Balmy Blue, Basic Black, Vellum, Watercolor Paper
Embellishments: Whisper White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon 
Tools: Versamark, White Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, Seabed Embossing Folder, 2 1/4" Circle Punch, Whale Builder Punch, Water Painters
Adhesives: Stampin' Seal, Stampin' Dimensionals, Mini Glue Dots, Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Happy Stamping!
