Backgrounds using New 2022 In Colours

 Hello, welcome back to my blog.

When I saw the new In Colours for 2022-2023 I wasn't sure they were really my colours.  

So thought I would have a play by tapping the end edge of 3 ink pads onto a piece of acetate, spritzed them with water, then taking a piece of Shimmer card stock, which I spritzed both sides with water, 

holding the corners/side of the card began tapping the card on the spritzed colours on the acetate, if you just tap the card on the spritzed colours, you get a better result this way and will get white areas to on the background, rather than just pressing the yardstick straight down on the acetate sheet which will give you muddy colours I've found.

Once you are happy with the result let it air dry, this will only take a few minutes and if you want to add more colour to what you've just done, clean off the acetate then apply small dabs of either the same colours or different colours and repeat the same process as above.

I've used Sending Smiles stamp set and the dies.

For the flowers I used Happiness Abounds plus dies.

The flowers are coloured with Stampinup Water Colour pencils and water painters.

Thanks for joining me today and I hope you like my little project.
