Color throwdown blue,lime green and green

 




Over at the Color Throwdown challenge this weeks colours are blue ,lime green and green....and it just so happened that i was making this card for a friends birthday .I am loving this flower!!! I havent a clue where or who its by as a friend who is giving up card making gifted me a few of her dies last week and unfortunately they were just loose.

To keep within the challenge guidelines I used lime and green cardstock for the leaves and coloured the blue parts with a promarker.

Thanks for taking the time to look

AAA challenge






When I saw the sketch challenge over at the AAA Challenge blog for some reason I saw the sketch as a  boys card .

A few years ago I saw all these beautiful watercoloured handmade cards all over the internet and after watching lots and lots of videos,I invested in an expensive watercolour set....needless to say I am  totally useless at it :) so I use the paints to do splatter paints and other non painting techniques :) . I thought that it would add a bit of playfulness to my card and I admit who doesnt like a bit of splatter painting :).I used a clearly besotted stamp set coloured with promarkers and one of the sentiments from the set to finish it off.

Thank you for taking the time to look!

CAS on Sunday

FLOWERS

I have started this year with a bit of a cardmakers block and when that happens I often recreate a card that I've done before and this time I did that with a card that I last made in 2017! Though I used the same idea -  the word "Happy" as the main image and stamped flowers coloured with promarkers on the letter, when I looked back it was totally different from todays offering !!I added a panel, kept the blue shading ann the placement of the sentiment :)  What do you think,enough of a difference??:)
 
I thought so and I felt that it would meet the challenge over at Cas on Sunday for flowers on your card :)
Though must admit on my phone the card is much clearer and darker but for some reason it appears much lighter on my laptop :)
Thank you for taking the time to look
