Summer of Colour - Week Two



It's week two of Summer of Colour over at Twinkle, Twinkle like a star's blog. The two main colours for this week are coral and dark teal, and the pop, smudge or splash colour is bright white.



As I enjoyed the background of my graffiti tag so much I decided to use the same technique using pea coat fresco paint for the dark teal and I had a really hard time deciding if coral was a reddy pinky colour or an orangey pinky mix.  So I used a mix of both, the red version on the tag background and the orange on the 3 hearts.

Hope it fits the bill!!

It's the first time I've seen orange-pink and red-pink go well together. So, I think you did a fantastic job with the blending and mixing. Lovely, lovely tag.
