Three in One

Today's colour challenge is: Mellow Moss, Cameo Coral, Apricot Appeal and Creamy Carmel. The only extra colour I added, besides the white bases, was Going Grey because I wanted my watering can to be "tin".

I titled this "Three in One" because I used yesterday's Technique Challenge and last Thursday's Ways to Use It Challenge....which I never got to last week (although funny thing: the card I made the day before actually used the spritzer tool so I was ahead of the game. ha ha)

I've included two pictures of the card because I thought it was cool how in the second picture the sunlight created extra shadows on the card because of the paper tole. I was wandering around the house looking for a spot of sunshine to hopefully get truer colours than I was photographing in my stamping room in the basement.

The Colour Spritzer tool was used on the base of the card where I spritzed the colour that matched the matting of that particular piece.

This was fun and I do like this set. Here are the gallery links for the different challenges.

Lovely card. I agree that the sunlight really makes your card pop. Now I can see why so many want to photograph their card with sunlight rather than a lamp.
