I have been making the most of being able to just sit and play with inks - it's been lovely.
I saw this colour combo on Pinterest and thought I would try it.
The really bright blue and vibrant red appealed to me and although I get lots of inspiration from Pinterest I am very guilty of spending far too much time looking and not enough time doing!
I sponged the background then splashed some water droplets. This has given a real subtle effect and I am pleased with myself!
The Dandy stamp is by Inkylicious inked with Versafine Majestic Blue and Versamagic Wheat colour.
The red berry stem was inked with Dew Drop Rocket Red.
Sentiment stamped with Majestic Blue.
Another one for the stash!

Beautiful card and the colour combo really does work. I think I actually have this stamp but just couldn't get anything quite like this Viv. Gorgeous!
I can see lots of people now drooling over YOUR card on Pinterest, Viv! It truly is gorgeous with the pastel background behind those vibrant blue and red flowers!! Hugs, Darnell
These Inkylicious stamps are some on my wish list and the colour combination of blue and red with the wheat giving lovely depth to the piece and it looks as though there is a touch of pink in the background too along with the pale blue and water spatters. A beautiful and atmospheric card Viv. x
