"THIS CARD WAS A WINNER AT PAPER JEWELS CHALLENGE #6 MONOCHROMATIC" THE WEEK OF AUGUST 1, 2010
Hi all, it is Tuesday and I am back with a very short post. I have a birthday card that I have to get in the mail soon. And I wanted to get it posted once I realized that I could use it in a couple of challenges.
Stamp Scrap and Doodle Clean and simple
Sir Stampalot Challenge Bring on the bling
Now, a little about this card. The image is from The Stampng Boutique. I colored the image with my copics and mostly the blues. It had been sitting on my desk for a while just waiting to be made into a card. I think this image makes a good birthday card because she is offering up a slice of chocolate cake. And the cake icing looks almost black, but I used E49 to color the icing and E53 to do the cake. I used glossy accents on the cake to give it the shiny look. The bling is from my stash. The sentiment is from my stash stamped on one of the fancy tags from Spellbinders. The paper is actually from my scrap file. I don't know why we call it scraps when the pieces come in all sizes and there is always enough paper left over for another project. I used my Cuttlebug to emboss the paper and I used the D'vine Swirls folder. Well, I said that I was going to keep this post short so here is where it ends.

This is a sweet card. Thanks for joining us at SSDS this week.
