Two for One

I combined two challenges on one card.

The color challenge over at ColourQ...

...and a sketch challenge at Try Stampin' On Tuesday

with a masculine touch.

I used basic gray, coastal cabana, calypso coral but

I didn't have apricot appeal so I substituted with crushed curry.

I don't consider this card just 'masculine' or just 'feminine',

I think it could work for both.

I like all the texture that the big shot embossing folders

can add to a card and I LOVE the look that the label from

my new label maker gives this card too.

Sponging is one of my favorite techniques. It

gives a look of softness that offsets all the straight lines -

they balance each other.

supplies:

card stock: whisper white, basic gray, coastal cabana

stamp set: wetlands

ink: basic gray, coastal cabana, calypso coral, crushed curry, stazon

big shot embossing folders: argyle, stripes, decorative dots

others: label maker

Happy Stampin'
