Shaded Summer #GDP310

Hello everyone! A NEW Challenge from the Global Design Project team is out today! This week is a sketch challenge and I just love a sketch for sparking some inspiration. For my Shaded Summer #GDP310 card I have used both the Sale-A-Bration Summer Shadow dies and the coordinating Shaded Summer Stamp Set.

Are you looking for some inspiration? Then why not play along with the Global Design Project Challenge, we’d love to see your take on this sketch

I have used Polished Pink Ink to stamp the flowers, once these were stamped, I have then added more ink with a Blending Brush to the edges

All of the flowers were die cut from Basic White and then also inked with the Blending Brush. this gives them a soft colour and leaves a pop of white in places. The sentiment is also from the Shaded Summer Stamp Set

The extra splatter has been added with the dark Polished Pink Stampin Blend and I have flicked the brush tip in the lid of the blend – Such a cool technique!

Be sure to check out the Global Design Project Blog to see all of the Design Teams projects for even more sketch inspiration.

We would love you to join in with this challenge!
