Gettin' Real, Red.

Hi!

It's time for a new Colour Creations Blog Share. We are up to the R's this week - starting with Real Red. I'm a bit of a red fan, so I enjoyed pulling out some Real Red things and getting inky this week. Not that I don't enjoy getting inky anytime, it's just, as I'm sure you'll agree, some colours are way easier than others to get inspired by!

My first stop is usually to check what DSP has the feature colour, and this week I chose the Classic Garage DSP. I don't have any of the other coordinating products, but it's easy enough to make a great card if you don't mind a bit of fussy cutting.

I started by dusting off my long retired Stampin' Spritzer and using it to splatter some Basic Black ink over the Real Red DSP. I then layered some fussy cut cogs, dials and car over the top. I also added a strip of the road sign pattern as an anchor for all the other 'bits'. The 'For You' is from Jar Of Love on Very Vanilla cardstock, but it looked too clean compared to the rest, so it got the spritzer treatment too!

While I had the spritzer out, I also added some splatters to the inside. Another strip of the Real Red DSP and I was nearly done. The car was fussy cut from the DSP, but I used a car that was along the edge of the paper. I didn't want the whole car, so why waste a whole one when I could use a partial car?

Why not pop on over to Catherine's blog, where you can find the links to the rest of this week's Colour Creations cards featuring Real Red?

Bye for now,

Tina
