\nFor my card, I went with the Hot Colors option. I love beach sunset scenes so that’s the look I was going for here. I used a combination of sponging and Copic markers for the colors. I grew up in a beach town and I really love palm tree images so I thought this coconut palm would be perfect. After stamping it and the little sun\/cloud image, I sponged on some hot sunset colors above the horizon and some water colors below. Normally, I would mask the tree and horizon, but I didn’t feel like cutting out a mask for the palm tree, so I sponged very close to the tree then filled in any white areas w\/ Copics.
\n
\n<\/a>\"Stroll<\/a>The tree and sand were colored with Copics and I used a white gel pen to add some highlights. For the twine part of the Challenge, I used a piercing mat & tool to make the two rows of holes, then used some of the yellow\/orange twine from The Twinery to stitch the two layers together. I did divide the 4 strands of twine and only used 2 strands to stitch. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25 and these are the Copics & inks I used for coloring.<\/span><\/p>\n

I’m also adding this to the Simon Says Monday Challenge…White<\/a>, since this whole panel started out white.
\n
\n<\/a>\"Stroll<\/a>By the way, the prize this month is an assorted pack of twine from The Twinery!<\/span><\/p>\n
