The Amy Doodle Of It All . . .

Have a Very Merry Christmas

Color Inspiration

So I took inspiration from this palette for this card! Yes it's a loose translation, but it's still in the same color palette! ...ish....but regardless, I had fun and I love the results!!!

 

Playing with Rainbows

I thought it would be fun to put together a 15 minute card, and of course if I can find a way to sneek Rainbow Colors into the mix you know I WILL DO IT!!! I used my Distress inks, and  Life is a Journey stamp set from Simon Says Stamp.

I recommend Drawing some lines so you know how much to do  of each color (I know this because I didn't do this the first time and wasn't able to fit all the colors on!)

Color Inspiration

I love taking inspiration from things I love. . . . . and I LOVE these cute earrings by Lailas Jewelry!It's a set of red birds on branches that are perfect for winter, and besides who doesn't love red and turquoise together! From this inspiration I created my card!

 

I used Stampendous cling rubber stamp "Snow Bird" for my card, and I used Spectrum Noir to color the image. (Colors: CR8,CR10,BT2,EB5,EB8,BG4,BG6,BG8). I also used Nesting Circle Dies, and Nesting Doily Circle Dies, and of course I had to add Stickles!

Sunset Dreamweaver Stencil

I really love this technique of dying the embossing paste and creating a gradient. I love the look of the black trees and the Stickles that really make them POP! Below is a video of how to do the technique, although I'm showing it on a different card it is the same technique for this card as well.
