My card this week combines two challenges that I am hosting âe" this color challenge and the sketch challenge at CAS Colours & Sketches blog. I've been having some creative block recently and this card was no exception. It may be more like poor planning; I have in my mind what I'd like to do but then when I start it just doesn't turn out that way. For this card, the stamp set I had planned to use was way too large. This card would have needed to be an 8 X 10!
I went back to the drawing board and found this bear. It fits with my desire to make more birthday cards this year. Although this is a cute card, I still think it could be used for a guy. In fact, I was thinking of my brother-in-law who likes to fish when I created it. This may be his BD card this year!
The back square is outlined in the Coastal Cabana and the front one in Pool Party. I also created a mask of the two squares then used a sponge dauber to make a light background for the squares. This add just a bit of depth.
I hope you enjoy the colors this week and decide to play along. We'd love to see what you create!
