I am taking part of the #thedailymarker30day and this is my Day 1 coloring project.
For Day 1 of the 30 day Color Challenge I first went and found a new sketch. I really like the Mojo Monday Sketche so that's where I headed. This weeks sketch was perfect for the stamps and dies that I had hoped to use. After getting all my stamps and dies out I said to myself "what the heck are you going to color?".. so I decided to use some distress inks. Two of the colors I used are new ones that I haven't ever used. They are such beautiful blues and were perfect for my sky.
here is the sketch I used: MOJO433: ~ measurements below sketch
MEASUREMENTS:
I used dies for most of the layers on my card, but you can easily just cut card stock to have the same layers:
base: 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4" OR 4 1/4" x 11" scored at 5 1/2" (this is what I used)
blue layer: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"
black layer: 3 7/8" x 5 1/8"
pattern layer: 3 3/4" x 5"
black layer: 2 3/4" W x 2 7/8" H
watercolor layer: 2 5/8" W x 2 3/4" H
*note on the water color piece. I had a bigger piece of water color that I had cut, applied inks and then cut to fit. The size above is the cut down size.
sentiment:
black layer: 1 3/8" x 2 5/8"
white layer: 1 1/4" x 2 1/2"
