Today my interest was widely spread as I found five awesome challenges that I thought I could combine well.
These were the ingredients I thought I'd need. In the end I used less of the papers, no leaf cut-outs, but more markers. The guy was a stamp I had given away, but stamped a few for myself before.
I started by creating a sticky removable mask for the guy, as I had stamped it on a card base. This was the first time I used Aleene's Tack It, and I can highly recommend it. The removal of the mask was easy, it did not leave any residue nor did it tear the surface. I did a three color blend with the Oxides Rustic Wilderness - Uncharted Mariner - Blueprint Sketch. That left the guy white, but I used my markers to color him in. Lastly I flicked some water droplets onto the upper part to make the illusion of night settling in more believable.
I found a great sticker from TH Snarky chit chat pack. This is a birthday card and the main sentiment will be inside.
Entering this in these challenges that inspired my make today:
Make My Monday: #281 Blend 2 or 3 colors - I used three for my background
Passion for Markers: #844 Transport
Cardz 4 Gyuz: #387 Gardens / gardening
Try It on Tuesday: In the garden (2nd entry)
Simon Says Monday Challenge: Stars and/or stripes



Hi Alice! I came looking for the lovely card you sent me for the Card Chain Challenge - and found you did not do a post for it - but also found this really fun masculine card you made for several challenges - how fun is that guy on his riding mower! What a great background you made for him and the sentiment is perfect! I absolutely love the card you sent me for the CCC too!! Julia xx
