I kind of screwed up the "camouflage" part of today's technique challenge when I sponged the balloon in Cracked Pistachio to make it stand out. Oops! Sabrina's and Marg's challenges were fun to combine to make the nautical 30th birthday card that I needed. I cut the baloon with the 30 and the anchor with my ScanNCut. I also used a wave stencil that I cut with my ScanNCut. Splattered some water to add more interest and keep with the water theme.
If you want to know more about Marg's DTGD challenge come join in the fun!

What a fun combination with the balloon and anchor- and what a wonderful gradient of colouring in that super sponging. Not much camouflage, though, LOL. No worries - when I made my MIL's birthday card last week, I edged all the letters in gold so that they would stand out a little bit more for her older eyes.
