Peggy gave us some bold colors(all from the SU grouping of "Brights") for today's challenge. The colors are:
Pacific Point
Real Red
Pumpkin Pie
Dessert: Enamel Dots. I used 2 small black ones by the sentiment.
When I first saw these colors, I imagined "sunset" with these brights. So I decided that's the way I would go. Masculine cards are not ones that I enjoy making all that much, so I thought that I would use these colors for a Father's Day card(this finishes my needs for this year's holiday.) : ) I used a brayer to create a quick and easy background for the sailing ship using the three inks of Peggy's colors. White acrylic paint was lightly brushed onto the sails to lighten them.

Just looking back over some of the previous color challenges and came across your card. It is awesome. I love ships and sailing etc., anything to do with the sea. The way you used the colors is very clever and artistic. The little bit of white acrylic you used on the sails really brings the ship to life. Great Card!
