This card is for the sketch challenge for this week, to choose any sketch from 500 - 599 in the SCSketch gallery, I chose SC578, mainly because I wanted a sketch that would allow a fairly large image.
I was also going to use this weeks colour challenge colours again with Wild Wasabi as the dominant colour, I deviated slightly so am just submitting it to the sketch challenge
It is straight forward matting with some dry embossing on the crumb cake panel and some heat embossing on the velum flag for the greeting.
I also sponged the back of the velum with Wild Wasabi and around the edges of the image.
I will have to admit the colouring took a bit of time (about 1 1/2 hours) I even have red and green lights on the phone dock and modem and at this point I have to tell you this looks exactly like my soon to be 20 year old grandsons section of the rumpus room.
He is doing an IT degree at uni so is ensconced in this position whenever he isn't at uni or out skating.
This is his birthday card for the 10th July lol
Cheers

What a great card for your grandson - your coloring is fabulous and I really like your layout and use of colors and embossing too! The sponging pulls it all together.

Beautiful coloring! Your grandson will surely love this! I love so many aspects of your design .... especially the heat embossed vellum sentiment treatment, the embossed panel and the heart clip!
