The colors for the Color Challenge today on Splitcoast (CC743) are coral, olive & mint. I needed another Father’s Day card & I thought these colors would work for Ralph the Golfer & his plaid ugly pants.

After coloring & die cutting Ralph, I die cut the scene behind him then used a watercolor stamp inked w/ the Distress inks to stamp the sky behind the trees. 

Here’s the inside (it was computer generated) & below it are the Copics I used for Ralph.

Such a terrific site for the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC701). While I was browsing, I came across THIS picture and it reminded me of the wine image & greeting I have. 

After coloring & die cutting the lady, I stamped & fussy cut the wine glass & bottle. For the greeting, I stamped all but the last line then used red & blue pencils to draw the notebook paper lines & used a punch for the side. Then I stamped the last line & underlined it & drew a little push pin on it. The top bg was a piece of acrylic paint bg I had & I thought the colors accented my images. I put her in a circle frame then put it all together.

Here’s the inside & below it are the Copics I used.

This is for the 2 Monday Challenges on Splitcoast…CAS527 (humor) & TLC736 (acrylic block stamping). 

For my acrylic block stamped bg, I pressed the Kpad onto the block & spritzed w/ water. I thought it needed a little contrast, so I added a narrow black frame, then used my Misti to stamp the solid branch a few times. The greeting is a put together mix of 2 greetings. For the silly bird image, I drew the stripes then colored & fussy cut. Since this bird looks pretty rotund to me, I thought the greeting fit. I also contend his/her butt makes him/her look big..not the stripes, lol.

Here’s the inside & below it the Copics I used on the silly bird.
