Masculine card



I always have trouble with masculine cards.
I made this simple and easy one today.

Coloring Challenge Day 30



For the last day of the challenge I made this butterfly birthday card.
I stamped the back butterflies and sentiment with my MISTI.
Then I heat embossed and colored the butterfly and mounted it with some
foam tape to stand out a little.
I have really enjoyed this 30 days of coloring!

Coloring Challenge Day 29



Today is coloring challenge 29.  
I stamped the image on white cardstock and then heat embossed it
with gold embossing powder.
I then colored with distress ink.
Last step is I ran it through the matching embossing folder.
Added some lace and wallah, a finished card!

Coloring Challenge Day 28



I tried a new technique today for the coloring challenge.
I ran my cardstock through the embossing folder.
After it was embossed, I ran a white crayon over the embossed cardstock.
I then colored with distress ink.  I wiped off the ink
with a paper towel.
Look how those flowers stand out!
I love this technique and will be doing it again.

Coloring Challenge Day 27



Today's coloring challenge is a simple card I made last night after 
getting home from a night out with the girls.  
We saw Grease at the high school and it was so good.
I had this background that is mixed media that I made last year at Cozy Crop House.
I stamped and colored the flower with Spectrum Noir markers and added some
Wink Of Stella glitter to it, then fussy cut it.
That's simple enough to me!

Coloring Challenge Day 25



For today's challenge I stamped the background
stamp in Versamark ink, then heat embossed with silver embossing powder.
I colored the background with distress inks.
Then I ran it through the matching embossing folder.
I added a silver ribbon to finish it off.
I made 16 of these as I thought they were so pretty.
They will go out in tomorrow's mail to all my crafting friends!
