Here is my second card for today's color challenge. You know if you give me two different choices of colors that I HAVE to make two cards. This is for my same friend that asked for a card for her brother. She also wanted one for her sister. I found this lovely sentiment on Pinterest and printed it out on vellum using one of my fonts from the Hungry JPEG Supreme Font Bundle. After I die cut the vellum and the coloring book page, I traced the vellum and only colored in where it was going to cover. I just love these colors together and I was sad to cover them up with the vellum, but I did get the neat look that I was hoping for.
I really enjoyed the wonderfully versatile sketch Carey has provided today. And I used two things that I never use on my cards--chipboard and vellum. I love how they complement each other. One being so delicate and one being so heavy. I die cut the chip board using my stitched squares die, cut it in half, and colored it with a black marker to make nice sturdy corners for my light vellum.

This is a very sharp looking card with the vellum over the colors. I love the way you printed the sentiment on the vellum. Your friend is lucky to have you make these lovely cards for her. :>)
