    The Technique Challenge on Splitcoast today (TLC420), is light to dark…a gradient color challenge. Love me some gradients and since I was making a masculine birthday card, I used shades of brown. I hardly ever use browns so this was a bit of challenge for me. I used Copics for all the coloring on my gradients layers.

    The images are from DRS Designs. I stamped the silhouette hiker and trees w/ the cocoa ink and die cut w/ the oval. I cut a larger oval and went around the edges w/ shades of brown/orange Copic markers. I used the sam markers for the edges of the larger rectangle and the narrow strip down the side. I overstamped it w/ lines design and the Memento inks. I stamped the trees again on the backing rectangle and the lines on the chocolate piece.

    These are the inks and Copics I used:

    Happy Friday!

    For today’s Free for All Challenge (F4A157), we are to make a silly or fun card for a man. I’ve always thought this quote was a fun and I know it will be perfect for my brother in law. The guy loves a good beer and probably even some not so good ones.  And since his birthday’s coming up I’m pretty sure a big mug of beer will get his attention.

    The images are from DRS Designs. My clean and simple card was done on half of a note card. I liked the texture of the paper so I stamped the beer mug, drew a diamond shape around it and filled in w/ a black sharpie and added doodles. I saw this technique on the latest Technique Junkie newsletter, so I gave it try. I added the sentiment and little beer mug and a couple of Candi buttons, then doodles around the edges before attaching to my 5.50 x 4.25 card.

    Thanks so much for looking!


    Supplies:

    Stamps: DRS Designs – Large Beer Mug, Franklin’s Wisest Words,  Small Beer Mug
    Paper: Neenah white, ivory textured note card (Mike’s $ bin)
    Ink: Memento tuxedo black, Colorbox fluid chalk bisque
    Accessories: Copic markers, black Sharpie, Candi buttons

    Weekly-FavoriteA big CONGRATS to Lynn (aka allee’s), the Featured Stamper on Splitcoast (FS310)!! This is well deserved and a long time coming! Lynn is a big participant in the daily challenges and a gallery favorite. Y’all will love her big, fabulous gallery. For my card, I chose THIS wonderful card of Lynn’s to case.  I love the masked strip and silhouette image so I kept those. I changed the images, added a horizontal sponged line (because it looked like my little boy was sitting on top of the water) and added an extra layer. I rarely work on the card front…for me, that’s just asking for trouble. Yeah, like I need more trouble, lol.

    The images are all from Our Daily Bread designs. The silhouette and greeting are new, from a set called Little Boys. The large cattails are from the With Heartfelt Sympathy set. To begin, I masked the sides and sky are of the strip and sponged ink from the blue rainbow ink pad. Then I removed the sky mask and placed it over the water and sponged in the sun and sky using the birthstone & desert heat rainbow ink pads. After removing all the masks, that’s when I discovered my little boy looked like he was sitting on the water, lol. So I masked the sky again and sponged a green horizontal line using the fresh greens ink pad. After adding the sentiment, lg cattails and black layer my 4.25 x 5.50 card was finished.

    Congrats again, Lynn, enjoy your week!

    Thanks so much for stopping by!
