For the new Color Throwdown Challenge: kraft, gray, yellow. I was definitely inspired by the rustic headboard in the inspiration photo and wanted to try a weathered wood background that has a little twist from what I've done in the past. This technique uses glue in addition to swiping ink over scored cardstock (tutorial by Karen Dunbrook). I scored every 1/2" (Karen lists 1/4" on her tutorial). After scoring, I swiped Brushed Corduroy and Iced Spruce distress inks over the CS. After watercoloring with Fossilized Amber ink on Ranger watercolor CS, I die cut the floral base using MFT's Rose Overlay Die-Namics. The overlay piece was cut from Crushed Curry CS by SU. Layered Leaves Die-Namics by MFT were cut from Soft Suede and Always Artichoke CS by SU (I had to sneak a bit of green in there!). The sentiment is from MFT's Label Maker Sentiments.
