This card covers three separate challenges this week: Freshly Made Sketches; ColorQ and the monochromatic challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments.
I haven't been able to play along at Hand Stamped Sentiments for ages, so it was serendipitous that the color challenge at ColorQ also met the criteria at Hand Stamped Sentiments.
Both my ornaments are embossed in clear over Midnight Muse or Cool Caribbean ink. It's hard to see in the photo but above each little scallop is a tiny little pearl which I colored in a pale blue color. The music notes are inked in Midnight Muse onto the card base. The DSP layer is Pacific Point.
Here are the challenges:
Thanks for looking.
