Today's color challenge over at SplitcoastStampers is:
Tango Tangerine - Rich Razzleberry - Melon Mambo
Three very bright colors that I normally would not reach for in the same project, but I'm pleasantly surprised at how they turned out.
First up is a digital image from Tiffany Doodles, "Daisy", which I colored with Copics to look as close to the Tango Tangerine as I could. The background is digital dp from Stampin Up's My Digital Studio (First Edition), that I sponged the edges with Melon Mambo. I fniished by adding some bright orange (tango?) Stickles and a razzleberry ribbon. What do you think?
My second attemps is a digital image from The Stamping Boutique, "Spring". I realize that we're in to the summer season now, but I've been meaning to color this for awhile and the bright colors for the challenge were calling out. I colored the word with Copics and added some sponged clouds before adding some glossy accents here and there as well as some orange Stickles. The background is again a digital dp from My Digital Studio, melon mambo distressed, which I stamped with an open leaf in melon mambo. I colored the leaves in with Tango Tangerine ink pad and a blender pen. At first, I was afraid this might look 'fall-like', but I think the brighter pink and orange (and the word 'spring') sets the viewer straight on the season. I finished with the same razzleberry grosgrain ribbon as the first card. I actually like the way this turned out.
