This week’s Global Design Project is a color challenge, using: Darling Duckling, Poppy Parade, and Pool Party. We’d love to see how you use this color combo. Please show off your creation on social media, and tag it #gdp509, so everyone can see it.

I thought it would be fun to use “color blending” with the Layers of Beauty Decorative Masks. Since blue and yellow make green, I was able to have green leaves with my pretty flowers. And, the flowers are a combo of all three colors!

Color Blending
The masks are notched, and numbered, in the left hand corner, for lining up with the cardstock you are coloring. I cut my cardstock the same size as the masks, which also helps in lining up properly, 5″ X 6 5/8″. Using Blending Brushes, I varied the pressure, and amount of ink, to achieve lighter and darker colors. I recommend rinsing your masks and brushes in water, soon after completing your coloring, so they’ll be ready for your next project.

To give my bouquet a petty border, I used the largest Textured Notes Die for cutting the white cardstock. The sentiment, “God bless,” is in the Layers Of Beauty Stamp Set. I stamped it in Memento Black Ink, very carefully, and breathed a sigh of relief. I didn’t want to make a mistake at this point. To complete my card, I glued the layer to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.
