I am honoured to announce that the Color Challenge team at Splitcoaststampers has invited me to guest design with them for the month of August.
This week, Stef has chosen some bright colours which I decided to use for a silhouette effect.
The dessert option is anything goes. My take on this was to use liquid starch with dye inks to create a 'watercolour wash' background. The result is a very vibrant scene.

This is striking, Annette! I was curious how Rich Razzleberry would look for a silhouette with this combination and you carried it off beautifully. It's great to have you hanging with us this month!

What an amazing effect using the liquid starch, watercolor effect but keeping all the vibrancy of the ink colors. A glorious scene, love the tree silhouette against the sunset sky! So glad to have you with us this month Annette!
