Made another KISS card today. KISS = Keep It Simple Stamper. A set of owl stamps from Hampton Art are one of my favorite sets. The images looked cute stamped in colored pigment ink squares I found at Tuesday Morning! This card is to help Bugaboo celebrate their 5th birthday! Todays challenge was a color scheme. I liked the way these 2 shades of green paired with the pink ink hearts.
I also spent today dying some white/cream lace that I want to use for a future project. The lace on the left seemed to have a protective layer and would not take the tea color (I soaked it for 30 minutes.) Instead, I then put 8 drops of red food coloring and 5 drops of blue into 2 cups of warm water to make the shade of purple on the left.
I LOVE the color shade of the white lace I tea dyed on the right! The tea I used: Lipton Green Tea Cranberry Pomegranate flavored. I also soaked this one for 30 minutes and it came out beautifully! Now to decide which to use on my project featuring purple/pink roses....tough choice! I will post pictures of my project when it is complete.
Items I used for card:
- Core'dinations 65lb cardstock from Jo-Ann
- Hampton Art Owl Stamps (SC0191
- Colored Pigment Ink Squares from Tuesday Morning
