Pot of Gold ~

TGIF!  I don’t know about you, but October is flying by for me!  I got the sweetest little set from SP and Company stamps the other day and just had to stamp it out.  It’s called Lucky Day.  I felt the need for a little sparkle and lots of color, so I stamped out a pot of gold and a rainbow to play around with.

The rainbow is colored in three shades of each color – R24, R27, R29; YR04, YR07, YR18; Y11, Y15, Y26; YG17, YG23, YG25; B14, B18, B24; BV02, BV13, BV17 – giving a small highlight right at the bend of the rainbow.  The cauldron is colored in cool greys.  Cool greys are used for metal pieces – C3, C5, C7.  It’s a blue toned grey so it works well for that *cold* feeling. 

Here’s a little detail shot of the gold prize!  I colored it first with Y28 and then went over it with a Gold AtYou Spica pen.  I really didn’t need the base color.  When covering an item with glitter, I always color the item a base color because I get better coverage; however, with the AtYou Spica pens, you get great color coverage and great glitter coverage!   Check out that sparkle!!
