Sorbet Colored with Blendabilities!

 

 

Good morning and thanks for joining me here at Ink a Doodle Creations.  Today over at Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration, we are sharing projects created using blendabilities.  I wanted to do something a little different than the norm of coloring the whole image with the same shade of colors, i.e.-all red, all yellow, etc.  Yes, this time I chose three different colors.  One of the sweet things I enjoy is sorbet ice cream.  Not only is it yummy and tastes delicious, but its pretty to look at.  With all the shades of yellow, oranges and pinks.  It just makes one happy!

I used the dark shade of melon mambo, med. shade of pumpkin pie and the light shade of daffodil delight.  I started on the inside of the flower and worked my way out starting with melon mambo.  Together all three colors blended together to give me my sorbet ice cream look.  I finished it off with some rhinestones in the center a few swirled out to the sides.

Supplies Used
Cardstock ~ whisper white, melon mambo
Ink ~ momento black ink
Blendabilities ~ melon mambo, pumpkin pie and daffodil delight
Stamp Set ~ blended bloom
Misc. ~ chevron embossing folder, basic rhinestones, daffodil seam binding ribbon

I hope you have enjoyed my twist on the use of blendabilities.  Leave some "love" and come see what the other designers created.
 

Blended Bloom with Mojo350

Good morning!  I don't know about how the weather is where you live, but here in Virginia, its been hot, hot, and humid...Yuck!  I can take the heat, but when you throw in the humidity, that's when I stay in.  So if its been really hot where you are too, be safe with the heat and make sure you drink lots of water!

Todays card is for the sketch over at Mojo Monday.  I really had so much fun with this sketch.  When I saw the circle in the middle, I knew I wanted to break out the Blended Bloom flower and color it with my blendabilities from Stampin' Up!  Can I just say these things are AWESOME!  I have never been good at coloring, except with crayons the old fashioned way, but these blendabilities make it so darn easy to color.

 

The flower is colored in daffodil delight and I highlighted the center with some colored rhinestones.  Another great thing I love about blendabilities, you can color on pearls, rhinestones, bling and it won't rub off!  I started with a card base of Bermuda bay and layered it with a white layer, that I embossed with the new tiny triangles folder.  My background layers are using the new Confetti DSP and highlighted with two strips of Bermuda bay ribbon and accented with a clear vintage faceted button.

 

On the inside, I added down the side and along the bottom a layer of the same mini triangle DSP and a strawberry slush layer behind that.  I stamped in basic black, the "Woo-Hoo" from the Bravo Photopolymer stamp set.
