I'm super excited to be invited back in Simon Says Stamp's Wednesday Challenge
Designer Spotlight for January. It's such a great way to start the New Year!
This week the challenge theme is SOMETHING NEW and we are using Hero Arts
products on our projects. You don't have to use Hero Arts on your projects, but if you
have some, then feel free to use them in the challenge.
For my project, I did the inlay die cutting technique with the gorgeous
the koi through the panel. I used a combination of Zig markers and gold
watercolors to color the koi.
Three more koi were cut from white card stock and adhered together with the
colored koi on the top. The panel was adhered to a black card base and the koi
was popped into the negative space. Gold spatters and dots from a black
Gelly roll pen finished off the card.
Visit today's post over at Simon Says Stamp's Wednesday Challenge blog for
all the details and deadlines and link your "Something New" project!
The prize is a $50 Gift Voucher to the Simon Says Stamp store.
Hope to see you in the gallery!
