Dream Scheme Thursday

Time for another Dreamweaver Stencils Dream Scheme Thursday.  This week's challenge is from Dream Team member Pam Hornschu and is a colorway challenge of Lavender and Gray.  There are many shades of these two colors so the possibilities are many! Here's what I've created this week:

This is very easy to do. Simply paste emboss the Peacock (LG730) stencil on lavender paper with the Metallic Silver Paste.  With the stencil still on the wet paste, sprinkle the peacock with Purple Satin Metallic F/X powder (FX14). Use a soft brush to VERY GENTLY brush the powder over the peacock image avoiding the flourish areas. Remove and clean the stencil and let the pasted image dry thoroughly.  Use a sort brush and a swifter cloth to remove excess powder from the image. Mount on grey and lavender layers and embellish with a ribbon.  This would be a great birthday, anniversary or wedding card.

Don't forget to stop over at the DREAM it UP! blog to see what Lynell came up with this week, then check out the other team member blogs too.

Happy Creating,
Louise

    I love how you accomplished the lavender bird and yet the background is still really complementary. Gorgeous work!

    So elegant, with just enough of the wow factor without being over the top. Great job!
