Hi!
Thanks for join gin me once again for the Colour Creations Showcase. This is Week Three, and we are all looking at the gorgeous Bermuda Bay. I decided to pair it with the Under My Umbrella bundle.
I started by making the background for my umbrella. I used a sponge brayer to ink some Whisper White card, and then splattered some fine drops of water over the top. I also splattered some Frost White Shimmer Paint. I love the combined effect of the two together. I used my Stitched Rectangles Dies to crop the panel, and to create a frame to go around it. I popped up the frame using Adhesive Strips.
The umbrella was coloured using my Bermuda Bay Blends and a no-line colouring technique. The sentiment was heat embossed using white embossing powder.
When I made the background for the front of the card, I made a full sized card front. Instead of wasting the offcut, I cropped it again with the largest Stitched Rectangle Die and used it for the inside. It's way too pretty to throw out!
You can find the links for the rest of this week's Bermuda Bay creations over on Catherine's Blog. I love Bermuda Bay, so I'm keen to see what the rest of the group has made!
Bye for now,
Tina

ReplyDeleteTina your raindrops look amazing and I love how yo always decorate the inside of your cards - it just finishes them off beautifully, especially today with your raindrop effect and no-line colouring.
