Sally CT - Challenge and Colour Palette inspiration

 

Hi There! Happy New Year! Over on the Bee Crafty Facebook Group, Bev is giving us some stunning colour palettes to play around with for inspiration. Thought I would join in the fun AND make some Floral inspiration for the challenge at the same time. Here's how it came together

I began by blending inks across a page in my 5x5 journal. I used Victorian Velvet, Milled lavender and wilted violet Distress inks. 

Next I used a tag inkable to add some Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide ink to the page. 

On a separate piece of card I stamped and cut out the flower from Journaling Essentials #9, colouring it with coloured pencils. 

Using the same stamp set I added more stamping in Monarch and Lilac Bloom Versafine Clair ink.

Finally I added the flower and a couple of wordy Stickers to the page with Matte Medium, along with some faux stitching with the coloured pencil and a white gel pen. 

Here's the finished page again.

I used:

Inkables Tag set #1
