Delphiniums


Today's color challenge (CC325) from Splitcoaststampers is "Rich Pacific Delight" ... meaning Rich Razzleberry, Pacific Point, Daffodil Delight.  All strong and vibrant colors!  I just can't get enough of the delphinium stamp from the Echoes of Kindness set and have been making many, many cards with it.  I turned to it again for this challenge.   Hope you like. 

"Delphiniums"
 
 
Stamps:  Echoes of Kindness (SU!)
Paper:  Rich Razzleberry, Whisper White (SU!)
Ink:  Rich Razzleberry, Pacific Point, Daffodil Delight; Rich Razzleberry and Daffodil Delight re-inkers (SU!), Versamark

I stamped the image three times onto Whisper White cardstock with Versamark and then embossed in white.  I used my Aqua Painter and the Rich Razzleberry re-inker to paint in the flowers.

I randomly (and lightly) sponged Rich Razzleberry, Pacific Point and Daffodil Delight over the main image and also the background paper.  I sponged Rich Razzleberry around the outside edges to add more depth.
I mixed a few drops of shimmer paint and a few drops of Daffodil Delight re-inker together in a mini mister with some rubbing alcohol.  I spritzed over the main image and the sponged background paper to add shimmer (hard to see in the photo).

I mounted all the pieces as per the picture above, popping up the main framed panel with dimensionals.
