It's time for another Lindy's Stamp Gang Color Challenge and this month the palette is bright beachy colours!   For a change I used all of the colours picked for this month: Delphinium Turquoise, (you could substitute Hydrangea Blue) Frenchy's Pink Pouf, Ocean Breeze Blue, Clam Bake Beige and Steel Shimmer (as I didn't have Silent Night Silver!)  The colour combination made for a bright and happy result.

What I did:

Begin by drawing a doodle using waterproof markers, I used Copic Multi Liner 0.3, Kai Outline Brush pen and a Sharpie Fine Liner.  I find that by using pens in varying widths and nibs the end result is more interesting.  This was the black and white doodle before I added colour.

Then I added my Lindy's Stamp Gang Magicals - some I added in concentrated doses (eg the Turquoise - for mega bling) and in other areas I used a graded wash of colour - going from dark to light.  I had fun varying the intensity for a variety of looks, but I really love the sparkle on the circles!

To finish I used gel pens, Pilot Choose in Silver and White 0.7 and Gelly Roll Stardust in purple to add some fine details and embellishments.  You can see the Stardust pen on the flower pattern.

And when I'd played around and felt I had added enough embellishing my finished page looked like this....    I love how the Clam Bake Beige around the doodle just adds a little something extra.

I can't wait to see what you all create with this month's fun colour combination - I swear it gets harder to choose favourites every month!
