Monochromatic Smoky Slate – Attention Shoppers
Happy Saturday friends, Welcome to this week’s Monochromatic colour challenge for the Crafty Collaborations Insta Hop. Today we have a beautiful soft gray, Smoky Slate, which has almost a silver tinge. I am using the Attention Shoppers Bundle to feature some variations of this colour on my card.
The first secction I worked on was the polka dots. It’s been a while since I used this technique and it was so much fun. Just take a sponge dauber, tab it into the ink pad and dot away on your project! Such a great way to add a background and if you haven’t tried it, go get your Sponge Daubers!
A thin strip of Silver Foil separates the Take to the Sky patterned paper on top from the polka dots.
I stamped 2 shopping bags, colouring one with Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends and paper piecing the other with the Country Lace Designer Series Paper. Paper Piecing offers a fun way to add designs to elements.
Around the shopping bags, I added some cut apart ephemera flowers and leaves in simple black and white to fill in and add depth to my card.
I used 2 sentiments from the Saying Something Mix & Match Ephemera Pack, colouring the bottom one with a Dark Basic Black Stampin’ Blend. These sentiments were offset and then glued to the card, giving the letters a shadow effect. Some Silver Metallic gems complete this card, adding a touch of sparkle.
I hope my card today inspires you to try some of these techniques and create something today. Our Designer Series Paper sale continues until 31st August where you can get 15% off on a select range of patterned papers. Shop by clicking below or contact me to place an order.
Have a lovely weekend.
