Hello, folks! Just dropping in with another card tonight for two challenges. First up is the color combo at The Play Date Cafe, which is just gorgeous. I recently pinned a photo on Pinterest with the same colors, so I was excited to see this!
I also used this week's sketch from Card Patterns. I've missed playing with their sketches lately.
I needed a masculine birthday card and thought these colors would work well. I stamped the large branch from Woodgrain Silhouettes Additions with Island Indigo onto Rustic Cream cardstock. I stamped it again and cut out the bottom branch to layer on top of the strip stamped with text.
The round focal image, from Woodgrain Silhouettes, was cut out by hand and accented with a yellow Copic. The sentiment is from PTI's Masculine Motifs.
Cardstock: Papertrey Ink (Rustic Cream), Stampin' Up! (Daffodil Delight)
Patterned paper: Stampin' Up! (Neutrals DSP)
Stamps: WPlus9 Design Studio (Woodgrain Silhouettes & Additions), Papertrey Ink (Background Basics: Text Style, Masculine Motifs)
Ink: Stampin' Up! (Early Espresso, Island Indigo), Copic marker
Tools: Fiskars (border punch)
Accessories: thread
I'm off to enjoy a movie with the hubby before bed! Thanks for stopping by!
