Welcome to the Kre8tors Blog Hop where today we have a beautiful Color Challenge!
Here’s the card I came up with…
I wanted to include almost all these pretty colors, so I used my reinkers and aquapainter to watercolor on shimmer white paper. You can’t really see it in the pictures… but it sparkles! I stamped the fairy using Memento Ink.
This is a unique cut that I’ve used recently. It’s basically 11″ x 4 1/4″, scored at 5 1/2″, and then I cut 1 1/4″ off the bottom front.
Be sure and continue on the hop to see more ideas using these fabulous colors!
Next up is Melissa Tennison, who always has great projects to show us!

April 14, 2019 at 6:25 pmThanks Eva! It warps some, but not too much because I’m careful not to “drown” it. I just used Tombo & pressed it down for a few extra seconds.
