The challenge for this week's
OWH Stars and Stamps midweek throwdown is a color challenge to use green and blue, adding orange and neutrals. This one took me a while to put together but I'm happy with the results. The image was colored with Copics, and I added some liquid applique to the little tail, along with some blue sponged clouds in the sky. The ef is bubble wrap by Tim Holtz/Sizzix. I left the sentiment off because it didn't seem to fit anywhere :)
I also based this card on the
Freshly Made Sketch #77.
This is the sketch for
Seize the Birthday #10 - a masculine birthday card.
I flipped the sketch to accommodate this large sentiment by Inkadinkado. I heat embossed the SU! image with silver ep as well as the sentiment. I matted with pacific point and some BG dsp. The sides needed a little balance, so I used my SB square dies to cut the larger silver pieces, and the smaller card stock centers were negatives from an EK bricked pattern punch.
That's it for me today, but thanks so much for stopping by and make it a great Thursday!

Wowzers! These are both totally awesome. I just love that little bear image! As for the masculine card, the silver just rocks! So striking.
You really rocked the blue and green challenge. I love that ou mixed the orange with brown, it really toned the orange down! Such a cute little bear too.
Look at you go today. Love that bunny and his little tail. I didn't even know about that ef. It seems to work perfect with this image. Your Birthday card is very handsome. Love the colors and your little diamond shapes are a great addition. I will be finishing mine up in the next hour. It will be my first time playing the Seize the Birthday Challenge. Hope it comes out the way I see it in my mind. Talk Soon.
Both of these totally ROCK! Love the tail on that little guy on the first one - and those fluffy clouds! The second card is VERY nice with that masculine touch! Great take on the sketch too....and glad you're playing in Seize the Birthday!

Both great cards. I really like the technique you used on your masculine birthday card. I have a problem making those kind of cards...but, obviously you don't...Very nicely done.
