Good morning! If you've been stamping as long as I have, you might remember these little shimmery pots of goodness called Twinkling H2O's. This week's Beyond the Blue challenge #69 is to use a retro tool or embellishment, so I pulled out my neglected stash of Twinks and a really old die. I used an old leafy die from Taylored Expressions (it's so old it has those anchor holes on the sides to mark your spot) and cut out a bunch of leafy branches from watercolor paper.
After I dropped some water into these pots of Twinks, I randomly brushed the colors onto my die cut leaves. While I waited for these to dry, I stamped and cut the sentiment (Honey Bee Stamps) and cut my card base from kraft cardstock. I glued down the dry leafy branches and then splattered some of the dark brown Twinkling H2O color over the card before I adhered the sentiment.
Honestly, this was so much fun! I used two very old stamping supplies from my stash (the leafy die and the Twinks), and now I wanna pull out the rest of my Twinkling H2O's and play with them again. Take a look through your supplies and play along with our challenge. We'd love to see what your retro supply is!
