Artist Color Wheel

I created this card for Stamping A to Z's A is for ... (art journal), B is for... (Basic Grey), and C is for ... (ColorBox) challenges.

 

 

The background is patterned paper from a Basic Grey Kioshi 6x6 paper pad (KIO-2344 Yuriko). It reminds me of color wheels, which is why I picked it for this card.

 

To make the focal image, I stamped Inkadinkado 97460-An Affair of the Heart (tattoo heart with banner) using ColorBox Blue Lagoon chalk ink, from their Primary Elements chalk queue. Next I stamped letters from Hero Arts® CL183-Sparkle Clear™ Cute Letters to spell "artist" using ColorBox Lavender chalk ink from the same queue.

 

I colored in the sword in the design using a Sakura Stardust clear glitter gel pen for sparkle and shine. I cut and dry embossed the focal image with Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels Eleven and made a cut and dry embossed matte using Labels Eighteen.

 

I tied metallic purple cord around the black matte and then adhered the focal piece to it. I mounted the matte to the card base using foam squares for dimension. The crystal jewels are iridescent rhinestone stickers from Recollections.

 

Thanks for looking! :-)
