That moment when you ask what someone's favorite colors are so you can make a card for them, and it matches a color challenge that is live right now...! I mean, how fortuitous is that? So thank you SUO Challenges for suggesting these colors, and also thanks to Just Add Ink for the fun sketch, haha!
I did use a retired stamp set for this card, which I don't often do for my blog, but sometimes you just have to for birthdays!
I am loving the Blending Brush technique AND found a happy accident! If you hit the paper first with the brush, instead of the scratch paper, you get these big marks...but it gives it a bokeh kind of look, and that works nicely with a camera, ha!
Stamps: Capture The Good (retired)
Ink: Gorgeous Grape, Parakeet Party, Pumpkin Pie, Memento Black
Paper: Basic White card stock
Accessories: Gingham Ribbon, Dimensionals, Blending Brushes, Lucky Limeade organdy ribbon (retired)
I hope you get to make something happy today!
