If yesterday was all about imagery, the next couple of days are all going to be about colour. Following a variety of challenges as they were launched last week, I saw a distinct trend towards a salmon/coral/orange palette. This felt like something worth exploring, so I'm trying to take up as many of those challenges as I can, call it a series if you like. Stay with me if you'd like to see where I go.
First things first - Simon Said 'Coral' on Monday. Looking around I was intrigued how varied 'coral' can be. I chose to veer towards the peach/orange side of the house, than the pink. See what you think.
I quite like the fact that the gilding flakes didn't take perfectly on the FlitterGlu and left it a bit grungy/vintage.
It was also a chance to contribute to Shopping our Stash's 200th Challenge, using this Big, Bold and Beautiful stamp from IndigoBlu, and the beautifully simple sketch from Freshly Made Sketches.
