The challenge this week at Digi Doodle Shop's Best is "Don't Forget our Men". Now..come on. I can almost hear you groaning.. lol. Why do we all react that way to masculine cards?? In all honesty, I do the same thing. I've had the list of challenges and this one got pushed after all the "fun" ones. But look at this!! I am so thrilled with the way it turned out and now I am wondering why I react that way. I just love the way both layers look like license plates. That evolved as I was working on it. I have those awesome square eyelets that I've never used before. Love them!! The silver in the corners of the Sentiment layer are silver 1/2 pearls. So come on.. let's rock those man cards!! I can't wait to see what you've come up with.
Here's the details:
Stamp: Digi Doodle Shop "Old Truck 2"
Cornish Heritage Farms "GM Series"
Papers: The Paper Studio (it's actually a soccer ball print.. lol), XpedX and Georgia Pacific
Eyelets: Making Memories
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black (distressed the edges of soccer paper with it and on the sentiment)
Copics:
C1 thru C9, E31, BG10, BG0000
Hugs~
Challenges:
Pixie Dust Studios Challenge: Boys/Men

Wow Dana, your colouring is fabby, the truck looks wonderful, what a lucky bloke that gets this!!
This card is so cool Dana! I love the papers, the colors you've chosen, those cool eyelets, etc. etc. LOL
Thanks for leaving me such sweet encouraging comments on my blog. I really appreciate your support. I can't quite break out of my watercolor comfort zone. I have to confess, I'm scared of my Copics. I'm totally clueless, but I'm trying to learn. I think the paper I have coming will help a lot and I know I'm hindered with the blending because I only have one set (#2 will come for Christmas). Your images always look so smooth. I feel like a kindergartner with those big fat crayons. LOL Yes, I know I'm a nut. :) Hugs!
Wow Dana fabulous card. Love the embellishments.
