This is my card for today's Sketch Challenge. It is also for Color Throwdown #31 - to use Bashful Blue, Kiwi Kiss, Night of Navy. http://colorthrowdown.blogspot.com/2...owdown-31.html
I needed a masculine birthday card and thought these colors lend themselves well to that. I stamped part of a large Outlines stamp onto GP White with Bashful Blue and punched out three inchies. Framed those with Bashful Blue and popped them up. Stamped the sentiment, framed and popped it up the same way. I punched three tabs and attached them with BB brads. Added BB brads to the top corners to finish it. Background DP is MME Bohemia.
Thanks, Roxie, for another great sketch and TFL!

Carla, I've only had small chances to take looks at the challenge gallery today. I surely didn't want to miss making a comment on your handsome card today! The colors and paper are perfect for a masculine card. You hit it right on the head with this one! I really like the detail you added with the word window punch! Great job with the challenge. TFS
