Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge #206
June 05, 2014
Today I am posting a card that fits in with the Pals Paper Arts Challenge. The challenge was to use baked brown sugar, pacific point and so saffron. Many things are new to me today - the baked brown sugar cardstock and ink, the Wetlands stamp set, the baked brown sugar twine, and adding a project to a challenge.
Without even thinking about it, I had my idea for my card (ok, that doesn't make much sense, does it?). I stamped off the weeds once before stamping on the so saffron. Then I stamped the duck, full strength, on top using the baked brown sugar ink. I love me some twine and am super excited that SU! gave us the thick twine for the in colors. I really wanted to put a button somewhere on the card but it just didn't work. So I tried the sentiment and was satisfied with that. Although I like Pacific Point, I would not have paired it with the other two colors. And there is the challenge. So I opted to keep it more in the background.
Although this card seems a bit plain, I liked it anyway. I will apologize for my photography. My family can attest to the fact that I will not be the next Ansel Adams. We have plenty of photos with everyone's head cut off or the images are blurred. *Sigh* So the fact that these pictures turn out in any way shape or form is pretty good for me!
I have high hopes that I will be able to link this card to the PPA Challenge. This will be my first try to do something like that. Wish me luck!
Thanks for stopping by!
