SEE MY BLOG CANDY CHALLENGE POST HERE!
Challenge ends July 31st.
Yet another one of those cards that I picked up, put down, picked up, put down, etc, etc. I tend to have issues with masculine cards to begin with -- I think its because you can't really be "cutesy" with masculine cards. But then I always feel they come out looking too simple. I had no choice on this one though and ended up going very simple the whole way -- right down to the plain Arial font! It doesn't get much simpler than this, and believe me, I fought the urge to throw flowers, rhinestones any bows many many times.
The digi is from DigiStamp Boutique. It was introduced at Father's Day I believe (which will tell you how long I've been picking it up and putting it back down). I bumped it up with foam squares and then did the same with the punched out polka dots.
CARD DESIGN:
Stamps: DigiStamp Boutique - "Just Snoozing..."
Ink: PC, Prismacolor Pencils, Chalks
Paper: My Mind's Eye

You have such a pretty blog Alissa! I love the strong colors and lines I see in the last few entries. I'm inspired to try a few more bold colors!! (And to be less afraid of shapes lol)
