Some really nice colors for the Color Challenge today. I needed another Father's Day card & I thought these colors would work for Ralph the Golfer & his plaid ugly pants.
After coloring & die cutting Ralph, I die cut the scene behind him then used a watercolor stamp inked w/ the Distress inks to stamp the sky behind the trees. On the inside it says: "If your pants didn't catch fire when you announced your golf score". Kind of reminds me of my stepfather...according to hubs, he had the hottest foot wedge in the country, lol.
Thanks for looking. It's on my blog w/ closeups & Copic colors: The Write Stuff

Fun card! Terrific use of the challenge colors! I guess Ralph had to wear his spare pair of pants, in case they caught on fire. Too funny! Great Father's Day card for a golfer. I like how you put color behind the trees for the sunset. Excellent scene, Julie. TFS

Oh my gosh Julie, thanks for the big laugh! Ralph looks dapper in his mint plaid pants and cap, and your Copic coloring is amazing! Love the die cut background and sponged sky. I knew a few golfers in the day that had great "foot wedges" and remarkably great scores LOL!
