My first reaction when I saw the color challenge at Dynamic Duos was to combine Perfect Plum with something like Old Olive and do up some flowers. But then I had second thoughts and decided to use Lavender Moon from PTI and do a little monochramatic card. Once I decided on colors it was a short leap to the challenge at retro sketches and the fab new stamp set from The Alley Way Stamps called Calypso.
I was trying to create the "brick wall" effect by sponging around the edges of the horizontal layers, but I don't think I applied enough "sponge!" I also went off sketch when I decided to round the edges of these layers of card stock. But the rounded edges just looked right with these softly doodled images.
Thanks for stopping by!
Supplies:
