This is my card for this week's color challenge. I love this color combo. Makes for a great masculine card, of which I am turning this into a birthday card for a guy. I colored my stamp with my markers, and did some thumping with another green to give it a big of depth. I distressed the edges, then ran a colorbox ink pad around them. I used a bit of DP for my tag which was punched out twice, once with the DP, once with a chipboard coaster. I then pasted my DP onto the tag. I did more DTP with the same blue around the tag. Two ribbons finished off the card. Wish I had moved the image up a bit...I didn't allow for that second blue ribbon. Always a learning curve! (LOVE that Blue Iris chalk ink by Colorbox....such a vivid and wonderful color).

Looking at the thumping technique and your card came up--I really like the colors--was the thumping done on the tree foliage?--will check out the chalk ink. TFS
