DZ Doodles Color Challenge

This week there is a Color Challenge at DZ Doodles! The colors we were to use are black and orange. These are fitting colors for a Halloween card, but I decided to challenge myself to make anything BUT a Halloween card. I invite you to join in the Challenge, because you just might win a free digital image. Drop in and take a peek and you can read all the details. Here is my take on the Challenge...




My CTMH products were getting lonely, so I put them to use for this card. This is Shelby. She's a cutie, riding her scooter. You can find Shelby enjoying many other activities at the DZ Doodles site. This digital download contains two images; Shelby on her scooter, and the basket of flowers. After I colored both images with Copic markers, I cut them out with paper snips, and mounted everything on foam tape. The Autumn Terracotta base is stamped with a CTMH background stamp and I finished the card off with a bit of gingham ribbon.I decorated the inside of the card with black and Vintage Cream card stock, a small scrap of the same DP that I used on the outside and then I put Prima flowers in the corner. I hope you play along with us and I hope you WIN!!

Supplies-All items are CTMH. card stock:Autumn Terracotta, Black,White. Vintage Cream(PTI). paper:Expedition paper pack. digital image:Shelby Scooter(DZ Doodles). stamps:sentiment-For Every Occasion. background-Adorable Backgrounds. ribbon:Autumn Terracotta Collection. ink:Autumn Terracotta. other: black brads from my stash. Prima flowers. Copic Markers. Scor-Pal.

Sweet card, Barb! Love the image and what you did with this color challenge.

Wow! Love it! That image of her on the scooter is adorable and I really like how you make traditional Halloween colors look so non Halloween-y. That was a great idea for a challenge and you pulled it off wonderfully.

Hope all is going well with you. I think of you all the time and send good thoughts your way!
