I realize it is Spring, but I wanted to do the Color Challenge on Split Coast Stampers and these colors just remind me of Winter.  If you would like to play along, here is the link:  http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=335287

Supplies:

Stamped House on Whisper White card stock by first loading my stamp with Versamark and then Basic Black ink.  Heat embossed image with clear embossing powder and heat gun.

Colored the windows in with a Going Gray maker.

Went over entire house with a Versamark Marker and then heat embossed it with clear embossing powder and a heat gun.

Brayered on Soft Sky ink for sky, keeping it darker at the top of the card stock.

Brayered on Going Gray for ground, keeping it darker at the bottom of the card stock.

Tore two Post It notes to use as a mask.  Note:  I tore through the sticky part so some of it is remaining so it will stick to the card stock.

Sponged on Soft Sky Ink right at the torn edge of the Post It Notes.

Moved the Post It Notes down a little on the card stock and sponged on Going Gray at the torn edge.  I’m just putting a hint of color on at a time.

I continue to move the Post it note mask down a little at a time and sponge more Going Gray ink at the torn edge each time I move it.

Decided I wanted it darker up around the house so I moved my Post it note again to the horizon line and sponge on Going Gray ink at the torn edge.

Stamped Trees with Going Gray ink.

Stamped Sentiment with Basic Black ink.

Added a shadow on the trees with a Going Gray Marker.

Created a bit of shadow under the sentiment by sponging Going Gray ink under it.

Assembled Card.  Here it is finished.

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and feel inspired to try out the color challenge.

Wishing you a day that is much warmer than this card appears.  I think I will save this creation for next winter.

Until tomorrow. . . . . . .
