The Digi Shack Color Challenge


Hi everyone! It has been a very busy week here at my house. Lots of end of year activities for the 'kids', then birthdays and upcoming Mother's Day. How wonderful it is to have so many fabulous busy things to fill my life and such a great family to enjoy those blessings!


Here is my take on the color challenge for The Digi Shack. We were challenged by fellow design team member Mandy to make a card with Chocolate Chip, Not Quite Navy, Kraft and Vanilla (or White). Here is my take; I kept it quite simple since I have quite a few more cards to make tonight.


I used the image of 'Ruff Day'. I colored the dog image using my Burnt Sienna Copic marker; the grass and sky were created with SU! markers and classic ink (bordering blue and old olive). The Chocolate Chip ribbon looks great with this not quite navy, chocolate chip and kraft cardstock, don't you think?


Hope you can join the fun. There are some fun contests and some NEW images. There's a brand new line of images just released (with MANY more to come) by a super talented artist named Lindsay Dyer. Wait to you see Lani the new Wahine. I'll be making some cards this weekend with her image so check back later.
Gotta' run! Catch up with y'all later!
Recipe:
Image: Ruff Day- The Digi SHack
Paper: Not quite Navy, Chocolate Chip, Kraft, Vanilla (SU)
Ink: Burnt Sienna (Copic), Bordering Blue, OLd Olive (SU)
Accessories: Choc Chip ribbon (SU) vintage brads (SU)
