Hello! It’s time for a new challenge at CAS Colours & Sketches, and this week we have a wonderful color combination! I created a BIG smile peek-through card for the DT inspiration 🙂

(Compensated affiliate links may be used at no additional cost to you. You can find the products that I used in the text below and also at the end of the post. Thank you!)

The color combination that Shannon chose for us is AMAZING:

Isn’t it terrific?? I love turquoise, and combining it with silver? Mind blown. 😍

Here’s my card:

For my card, I wanted to do some ink blending. As you know, it’s my favorite technique, especially with distress oxide inks. I used Cracked Pistachio and Peacock Feathers – love these colors ❤️

On another white panel, I used the Peek-Through Pattern Dies from Concord & 9th. This die set includes two big dies, that cut a word strip on the paper, but keep the pieces connected, so you get a peek-through window. Very fun and unique! 🙂

Once my two white panels were attached, it was time to add the silvery touch 🤩 I used the die again, but this time on a silver kraft-stock. Using my scissors, I separated the letters from the panel, and added them on top of the white:

The smile peek-through over the ink blending is really pretty, and I’m so happy with the way this card turned out! ❤️

The shine is amazing, isn’t it?? 🤩 Here’s a different angle:

    Your ink blending is beautiful! When I figured out these colors were still up for grabs I had to combine them, I love turquoise and silver as well! Beautiful card and it does make me smile!
