Mary gave us a palette of bright colors today plus two neutrals:
White
Black
Bermuda Bay
Strawberry Slush
Crushed Curry
Dessert: masculine card or one for Father's Day
This is a SUPER quick and easy card. Mary's colors intrigued me in that the three "colors" were the three primary colors with a slight twist. You see green and purple on my card(but no orange since the Strawberry overpowered the Curry)...it was done by the layering of these three colors......forming the secondary colors of the color wheel. My stamp had a double chevron, so I stamped each color once, overlapping the last color by a little bit with the next one......creating the green and purple. In all, I only stamped 4 times: 1 for each color and one for the sentiment. All five colors of the challenge were used on my card. I consider it a masculine birthday card and added black enamel dots.

WOW, Sallie, this is so cool. You can always come up with clever ways to incorporate the colors each week, and this is no exception. I love the chevrons. A wonderful masculine card!

How interesting, Sallie! So you really have lots of colors here including the 5 original. I think anything with a zigzag is perfect for a masculine card! And those dots are so nice to add to a guy card since they aren't all sparkly!

I have to agree with Jennifer! The positioning and accurate stamping four times is mind boggling and yet it's perfectly straight! I love how you planned the colors in this Sallie! What a fabulous, masculine card!
