Over on Twinkle Twinkle this week, Kristin has challenged us with the colours, 2 reds and a metallic.
The second half of last week's stamp was all at the ready plus the new word, "Memories".
The Distress Inks I used are Fired Brick and Festive Berries with Brushed Pewter Distress Stain for the metallic.
The liquid pearls are Rouge and Platinum Pearl.
Stickles Silver and Red.
As always it it so hard to photograph metallics, but I am thinking of the silver as cool wispy mist of an early morning as opposed to last week's golden hues at dusk.
I don't think about the stamp nor the opposing ATC when I do the inking and am amazed at how they seem to come together so well.
About Me

- Hi, Welcome to my Blog. I'm an eclectic kind of crafter delving into many pots. I am just about managing to keep up my Scrapbooking Diary (usually about 6 months behind), plus any cards as required. I have a new found love of Watercolour and Bible Journaling plus recently Faith/Art Journaling too. I've challenged myself to make an art journal page a day for this my 60th year. Previously I've also dabbled in ATCs, Tags, Altered Books, Mixed Media, Décopatch, Knitting, Crochet, and Embroidery amongst other things. I live in Surrey, UK with my husband, our son has left home now. For exercise I usually play Badminton and go Ballroom and Latin Dancing. I also like walking/Geocaching and sometimes do a bit of Bouncing on my Rebounder (mini trampoline). I have been learning to play the harp for the past 10yrs. I am now officially retired. I am a born again Christian, currently worshiping at my local Vineyard Church.

awesome Quartett!
Yes, BJ, they really do come together beautifully, don't they? I absolutely love what you have done with this week's colors and especially love the effect of all 4 week's works together. I can't wait to see what you do for the next 2 weeks! HUGS! Sharon
Very very nice. Great work.
Enlargeing this brought all of your wonderful detail to light- a wonderful creation!
Beautiful again :-)
Very nice concept: it's fun to see them all together!
And as Sharon Fritchman said: can't wait to see what you'll do the next two weeks ;-)
Very nice. x
Fabulous quartet!
I agree that they look like they were actually stamped at the same time, then cut apart. Your SOC entry this week is amazing and beautiful. I never thought of pearls, so your metallic is wonderful and very misty. Unique, too.
xo
Loving all four.
Hope you have a nice day. Sue
