Project 422: A summery sketch and color challenge
I haven't been doing too many challenges outside of my DT challenges lately as I've been bogged down with work and family commitments. But this weekend I was keen to play with some of my stash so I found some great challenges to make it more fun.
I decided to combine Freshly Made Sketches' layout with the color combo at The Color Throwdown:
The result is the summery card above! The image is from Stampin' Up and I colored it with ProMarkers, added some white gel pen accents and then die cut it into a circle. The paper is from American Crafts and is one of my favourites, I have been saving a small scrap for absolute ages. I added little touches of yellow in the dots and added sand to make it a bit more prominent. Really pleased with it, I think it's a fun little summer card!
What a fun card! I love that little crab! Fabulous sentiment! Thanks for joining us this week at Freshly Made Sketches!
ReplyDeleteLove this, so bright and cheery, great use of the Crab man. I like the pop of colour with the enamel dots. Cx
