Hello! I'm here with my card for Dynamic Duos #59 challenge. This week is just a bit different. Take a look at our graphic and you'll see what I mean ;)
Use Basic Gray & the color of your choice. The possibilities are endless, right?
Well, I couldn't wait to use one of my new In Colors from Stampin' Up!, Crisp Cantaloupe. I thought it would be just the right color for the scene I wanted to create.
It's been a while since I've done some sponging to create a scene. It's a technique that I love!
I cut a mask from printer paper, using a Spellbinders die, then sponged on Crisp Cantalope and Basic Gray to create the sky. After that I tore a mask from cardstock, then sponged on Basic Black to create mountains. I drew in a few birds, stamped a sentiment and added 3 gray gems to finish my card. Oh, and added the Gray card base.
I hope you'll join me and my awesomely talented team mates this week at Dynamic Duos. Links to their blogs are listed in my blog's side bar. What color will you combine with Basic Gray?
