SSS STAMPtember, Overlapping Drops Colored

 *This post contains affiliate links to Simon Says Stamp



Hey everyone!  Today I'm sharing a card featuring my Overlapping Drops background for the Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember release.

The last time I used this background I created a couple fun inky cards, you can see those on this post.

This time I wanted to show off the background using some simple coloring (i.e. no shading).

There are lots of ways to color this set, but I opted for a fun graphic look.

I started by stamping the background using Gina K Black Amalgam ink on Neenah Solar White cardstock.  

The basic leaves were colored alternating YG01 and YG23.  Where two leaves overlapped, I colored every other space with my N1 marker leaving the alternating spaces uncolored.  Finally, I colored the background black.


To finish the card off, I used the You Did It sentiment dies.  The sentiment itself was die cut from more Neenah Solar white and colored with YG01.  I added a bit of shading to the left/bottom of the letteres with YG23.  This was then adhered to the shadow piece cut from black cardstock, and then popped up over my panel.


That's all for me today, hope your week is going well!
