Tempting Turquoise #3
Hi
Recently on StampNation, Catherine shared an ink pad to paper technique inspired by May Day ribbons swirling.
So when I saw the sketch at CAS(E) this Sketch this week, I was reminded of swirly ribbons so I thought this would be the perfect card to try it.
Tempting Turquoise is paired with Soft Sky on my Color Coach Journey card today. They blend together really well.
I swiped my ink pads directly onto my whisper white card stock using the corners - this is a fun technique and you never get the same result twice. This was actually my first piece and I liked the design...especially from the Tempting Turquoise swirl.
I liked the arty result so I framed it using my Squares Framelits Dies.
By the time I finished, it had departed somewhat from the original sketch idea, but I guess it is still 'inspired' by and the swirls go from one side of the card to the other so I will submit it anyway.
I thought these colours suited a sympathy card so I just added a simple sentiment from Teeny Tiny Sentiments. No embellishment required.
The card is an odd size 10cm x 12cm - this was to suit my original coloured piece.
