A little bit of colour

When I make tags, for Tag Tuesday, customers or friends, I usually end up with a very neutral colour palette and fairly predictable vintage images as well. But every now and then I need to mess around with colour just a little bit.  I have all of three Alcohol Inks, three Cosmic Shimmer mist and three Distress Stains, lolol, as well as some Promarkers and Spectrum Noir pens. Thats it. Ah, and a few pastel chalks. Not the biggest arsenal in the world, lol. Anyhoo, out came the paints just for a few mins of splattering, dabbing and wiping -

The distress stains were quite light really, so they needed something else. I embossed them -

Then I rubbed one of them with a little bit of gold cream -

And embellished it without a vintage image! -

And then there was the really deeply coloured background. I did use a vintage image on that one, but only a little one, and lots of other stuff, like gold leaf flakes, watch parts, and I had stamped it as well -

I wonder how long it will be before I get the colours out again.
