CC1094 SC1103 Happy Day
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: DCinkit

 My card is a sample for the Color Challenge and also an entry for the Sketch Challenge.

Our Color Challenge hostess, Mary W. has selected Garden Green, Crushed Curry and Black with St. Patricks Day for the dessert option. I rarely send a card for this holiday, so I thought I did not have any image to use. Lo and behold, I found a tiny shamrock in an old, holiday set.

I did the Shaving Cream technique for the background. You can see the tutorial here on SCS. So fun to do! I thought the Sketch Challenge hosted by Kim would be a nice layout for using the Shaving Cream panel. I did make the oval smaller to not cover up the background.

Here's the sketch: SC1103 by SCSketches at Splitcoaststampers

The strip across was embossed with a new embossing folder. Then, I added gold gems according to the sketch. The panel is matted in black and attached to the Garden Green card base.

We hope you join in with these fun colors! TFL

Love your background technique Diane. It has a nice flow to it and so perfect for a St Patrick's Day card. Great work on the sketch as well.

I love your shaving cream background; it's an oldie but a goodie. Nice card putting the bg to good use.

Your shaving cream bg turned out beautifully and is the star of your card. Lovely use of last week's challenge sketch, Diane.
