Simply the Best–Color Throwdown #347

~

Hey there, people!

I’m hosting this week’s Color Throwdown challenge and here are the colors:

I was inspired by the photo above of the vibrant and happy beachy bedroom ensemble.  So I chose these colors for our inspiration this week:  Turquoise, Hot Pink, Gray and White.  You can also use any other neutral colors of your choosing, as long as these 4 are your main colors.

Here’s what I came up with:

I tried something new for my background.  I misted some Dylusions Vibrant Turquoise spray ink onto some watercolor cardstock, then misted again with water.  When it was dried to just damp, I misted a background stamp (an ikat design) with some water and pressed it onto the watercolored panel.  If you look closely you can see the faint design it left at the top of the background panel.  When that was dry, I misted it with some Tinsel spray ink as well.

The same misting with Vibrant Turquoise and Tinsel was done to the pink journaling card.  I added some Pink Bubblegum spray ink as well.

My stamped sentiment is from the Technique Tuesday Simply You set and the Seriously die cut is from Lil’ Inker Designs.

The layout I used is from this week’s Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge #273.

We hope you’ll play along with us this week!  I can’t wait to see what you do with these colors!
