Fun With Color

Crafter's Companion Toread "Sky"

What I love most about stamping is that you get to be so creative with the colors you choose to color the image with.  I find with stamps of people though, that I limit myself to the hair colors I use, like browns, blonde's, reds, or blacks.  However, with fairy tale type characters, like Sky from Crafter's Companion Toread collection, my imagination can run wild with so many different color combinations.

I decided that I wanted to try purple hair for once so that is what I did for Sky.  Once I picked the hair color it was a bit challenging to select the colors for the clothing.  At that point I went with what papers I had to coordinate with the color purple.  In the end, this is what I came up with.  The little bling in the corner was a creation I did from 2 different straight strands of rhinestones just to give the card a bit more pizazz.

The following is the list of Spectrum Noir colors I used for this image:

Hair - LV1, LV2, LV3
Skin - FS2, FS3, TN2, TN3, CR3
Clothing - CR10, OR1, OR2

I am truly enjoying the multitude of new stamps I got from Crafter's Companion and Treasured Memories Scrapbooking and Cards.  I can't wait to create more cards with the Toread's line.
