Happy Tuesday! One of my favorite people in the world (my sister!) has a birthday in January and she happens to love PINK! I’m mixing it up a bit with this simple card with a bit of an ombre featuring the Pantone 2019 color of the year “Living Coral” (as you can see I’ve used Abandoned Coral Distress Oxide Ink together with Worn Lipstick). I started the year with a card featuring The Pantone Color of the Year last year and wanted to do it again!
Representing the fusion of modern life, PANTONE Living Coral is a nurturing color that appears in our natural surroundings and at the same time, displays a lively presence within social media.
I did some simple ink blending through this MFT Stencil “Captivating Mandala” on ivory cardstock and it’s such a pretty blend of colors! I also added some shimmery paint splatters in the two colors as well to add some sparkle.
I had a few ideas of what would go on top, but decided to keep it super simple with a bold sentiment (this one from Ranger’s Letter It Embossing Kit) in black ink and some pretty black ribbon to make it all pop.
Here’s a closer look at the card… don’t you just love coral? And check out the shimmer in the background and that I added to the sentiment with a Wink of Stella brush pen. So pretty!
Hope you have a great day- be sure to join us right back here on Thursday afternoon for our January Blog Hop! The team has some fantastic projects to share with you!
Inky hugs,
Tara
