Hello everyone and welcome to week 34 of the colour creations Blog-Hop. Well this week we are featuring the colour Pear Pizzazz, it's a really lovely green colour (I know I'm a bit biassed as green is my favourite colour). But really it is a lovely green and I have coupled it with another of the greens. Mossy Meadow. I have seen the Whitewash technique done a few different ways and I thought I want to give this a go. So here is my version of this technique.
So starting with a pear Pizzazz card base I then added a Mossy Meadow layer. I then cut a 2nd layer in Pear Pizzazz and stamped it using the Prized Peony stamp set and Mossy Meadow Ink. I then cut another layer using one of the Scalloped Contour dies and then using the Stitched Rectangles I cut another Pear Pizzazz layer that once again I stamped from the Prized Peony stamp set.
I then started to colour the stamped images using the White Craft ink pad that I squeezed onto one of my stamp block so the the ink was covering it. Using the Blender Pens that come in a pack of 3 I picked up some of the ink and started to colour in the flower petals. I did this on both stamped images. on the top image I coloured the branch using the Bronze blends pen. I that stamped my sentiment and mounted this onto another layer so that the 2 greens were together even there. I attached the sentiment and the smaller layers to the front of the card using dimensionals.
I was really happy with the effect and I have since made 2 more cards using this technique in different colours. Everything used in this project except the Rhinestones can be found in the Annual 2021-2022 Catalogue. The Iridescent Rhinestone can be found in the Jan-June 2022 Mini Catalogue.

I'm a sucker for greens, too, Di. The peony stamp is a gorgeous image to use for this week's colour challenge, and you have done a lovely job with the whitewash technique. This is something I have been meaning to play with, and you have inspired me. Very pretty!

ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card, Di. The scalloped frame is really lovely to highlight the magnolia bloom and the background stamping is beautiful. This whitewash technique has made a revival hasn't it?! You've inspired me to give it another go too.
