CAS Colours & Sketches Color Challenge #504

Hey! Thanks for stopping by my little happy spot. Take a look around and hope you enjoy.

We would love to see what card creation you can bring to life. Please consider, taking a minute to post your card creation in our challenge gallery at CAS Colours & Sketches.

I’m still in Valentine mode, this cute little set was screaming at me to be used. I had no choice to leave the other set behind and move ahead with the cutest little valentine gnome from the Friendly Gnome stamp set that coordinates with the Gnomes Dies.

I used my Stampin’ Write markers in Balmy Blue, Mint Macaron and Sweet Sorbet to color the Mushroom and the Gnome. The gnomes hands and nose are also Sweet Sorbet, though I colored a little swatch on a silicone mat, diluted it with water and used a small brush to watercolor the nose and hands. The mushroom was stamped onto basic white cardstock then cut with a Stitched Rectangles die. On a scrap piece of Basic White I stamped the Gnome and die cut with the coordinating die. The sentiment is stamped in Memento Black Tuxedo Ink on some scrap cardstock, then cut with a Stitched Rectangles Die. I masked the mushroom house and stamped a Balmy Blue heart shaped sky in the background.
