A boy card

Good morning friends,
I have just realised that this is the last colour challenge at The Outlawz for March.....I can't believe that the first quarter of the year is almost done. and I am sure with all that we are planning the next 3 months will be going equally as fast.

Well onto the said
colour challenge for this week

Ina has selected the lovely colour photo and twist for the challenge

This week is another 'special' challenge and you need only use 3 of the colours in the inspirational photo. The twist is to make a boy card.
When you enter your card, please mention the colours you have used.

The DT have made some lovely 'BOY' cards, so I invite you to go and have a look at their creativity for inspiration.

Our sponsor this week is still Anne Fenton from Anne's Digital Art,
and she has some lovely images, so why not pay her a visit.

So onto my card, and I decided to go with a Handyman theme this week.

 

Paper..the striped paper was a piece from a swap I did some time back, and had the right colours, although the red is a little brighter on the card.

The Denim paper is from a pack by Marianne Designs...for the Men

 

The image.. is a stamp from a set by Darcies that I bought when I first started and was visiting my family in The Netherlands. My DIL and I went to a open day at a store and bought it on a special. I stamped it on the denim paper and embossed with black EP, to show up the stitching, then cut it out and raised with foam dots.

 

The yellow cardstock was inked with distress inkpad using one of my new Memory box stencils

 

The tools were cut from a Marianne Design die. Cut them once in a grey, then a\the handles in a  colour and attached them, to the tools, colouring the metal parts with a silver metallic pen.

 

Attached with 'screw' brads, and found a hand eyelet which I used to attach some twine.

 

The sentiment is also from the same set.

 

I enjoyed making this fun card and will enter it in the following challenges.

Colour challenge at The Outlawz..choose your colours...

Good morning friends,
Today at  The Outlawz we have another special colour challenge where you get to make some choices.

The photo this week was the choice of Ina. The colour we are required to use is Rose red and 2 colours of your choice, just tell us which they are. You also get to decide the twist, so don't forget to mention what it is.


For my card I used the colours Rose red, green and grey.
The twist is to add metal.

Recipe:
Red cardstock.
DP from a paper bloc 'Back in Time' from Joycrafts. It was very light green so added extra colour with Pan Pastel chalks.

Clock diecut is from Marianne Designs. Cut it from silver foil and coloured it with alcohol inks.

The sentiment was found on the internet, printed and cut with an X-cut die.

Added 3 buttons.

I think it can be a good masculine card as well.

The gorgeous cards made by the DT for inspiration can all be viewed HERE and we would really love it if you came and joined our challenge this week.
