I did another SCS (Splitcoast Stampers) sketch challenge and color challenge combined. I am finding that combining the 2 challenges is not so easy sometimes! But I managed to get it to work with this card. Like I said in an earlier post, I am trying to do these to challenge myself to become more creative on my own, instead of having to copy everything. I think it will help......................................eventually!
So, without further ado, here is your card for today - this is Sketch Challenge 180 (SC180) and Color Challenge 170 (CC170) (you can check these links to see everybody's cards). The colors are Real Red, Regal Rose, and So Saffron - these are most definitely not my favorite colors, so this was a real challenge for me!! But I overcame and here are the results:
The picture is not so great either - I am still working on learning how to take decent pictures of cards, get the lighting right, etc, but you get the gist.I colored the flower from True Friend with my Real Red and Garden Green markers and then stamped it on Whisper White cardstock. I used a scrap of Designer Series Paper from the last catalog on the card base (just something from my scrap pile), because it was the only thing that matched the So Saffron. I am telling you, trying to keep in their color schemes is not always so easy! I also used a Rub-on for the sentiment because it was easy and it fit the space! Perfecto!!
I hope you like it!
I am posting the sketch so you can see it - give it a try (you don't have to follow the color scheme - I am just combining two different challenges together). Have fun!!!
