Double/triple colours



I made this card for a VIP video tutorial for my customers.
It's a fun technique but I got very messy lol.
It's a way of adding up to three colours to your stamp
to get that lovely shaded look without using sponges or daubers,
which not every crafter has.
A lot quicker than colouring in!

The colours are all from the 2022-2024 in-colours along
with the matching dsp and card.

I finished off the inside with the same technique.



I would like to enter this into

So my son who is into triathlons was involved in an accident on
Wednesday night. He was cycling and a car cut right across two lanes into him.
He tried to avoid it and slammed on his brakes but just couldn't avoid her.
He bashed into the side of her, came head over heels off his bike
and landed on his head and shoulder.
He spent Thursday in A & E having woke up in an awful lot of pain.
He was a lucky boy to get up from it. He got up changed his burst tyre
and cycled home best he could on his ban jacked bike!
People be careful out there! Think once, think twice, think BIKE.
I have banned him from cycling anywhere ever again!!!
Happy to report scans and x-rays were clear, just very badly
bruised and they sent him home with painkillers and told to rest.

  5. 1st I'm glad to hear that all is well with your son. I always say we have to watch the other drivers, and people are always in a rush these days and not paying attention. 2nd your card is lovely, I like the artsy look of the tricolor floral. Thanks for inspiring us at the Beautiful Blossoms Challenge and we hope to see more from you soon.

  7. Oh my Pinky he had a lucky escape! Not good to be bruised and in pain but when you think of what could have happened he WAS lucky! I always worry when my husband is out on his bike, he enjoys cycling, it's good exercise but some drivers are so inconsiderate and impatient.
    Your card is beautiful - the flower looks amazing.
    Enjoy the long weekend
