Welcome to another Monday Montage Blog Hop. Glad to have you stop by!
I decided to play around with the new Apple Harvest stamp set. The images are perfect for coloring so I thought I'd try a few different ways.
First up I used my Blends. I stamped the image on Basic White with Memento Black and used Poppy Parade, Granny Apple Green and Light Soft Suede to color the image. I did have to add some Wink of Stella on the apples because who doesn't love sparkle? For the papers I paired it with the Host Paper Pack Celebrate Everything. A piece of vellum helped to soften the whole look. I think this would be an easy layout to CASE.
Did you happen to catch the sneak peek in the corner? Coming September 1 you can order dies to go with this set!

Here's a closer look. I think you can almost see the sparkle from the Wink of Stella. When I color with Blends I like to start with the darker color which I tend to use around edges or lines. I then use the lighter color to do the blending and soften the colors. Personally, I don't think there is a right or wrong way to use them. I encourage people to simply play and not worry about being perfect.
For this card I stamped the apple on water color paper and then used ink and my Water Painters to water color the image. I love having dies to go with a set! As much as I don't mind fussy cutting it's so much easier with a die.
If you haven't checked out the Gingham Cottage paper pack you need to do so. It is a huge paper pack with great patterns and colors. You get 48 sheets in this pack! It was a perfect choice to pair with this apple along with vellum again.
I used Old Olive and Real Red on this card.
