MFT Color Challenge 139

One of the many things I love about My Favorite Things are their various card challenges. They offer sketch challenges, color challenge, and a birthday project challenge. And they will also have special challenges throughout the year. For example, when the Winter Olympics was playing, My Favorite Things released a series of challenges for a week. There was mixing up techniques, make a clean and simple card, and several challenges.

The challenge I worked on today was a color challenge. My Favorite Things had a challenge for 2 weeks using 4 colors into the project. To be honest, I always freeze up with color challenges. The colors I had to incorporate were: Gravel Gray, Cement Gray, Blue Yonder, and Tangy Orange.

My approach to this card was different a bit different. I found a stencil in my stash I have not used. It was Sunrise Radiating Rays Stencil. I immediately used Tangy Orange ink with the stencil. As soon as I layered this onto a dark gray notecard, I knew I had to turn this into a boy card. Mainly because I don't have very many boy cards on hand to send out to my son's friends. I pulled the stamp set "Super Boy" and colored the image in with Copic markers. The markers I used were B34, YR09, E21, E23, and C5. The stamp I used is currently retired.

One of the other things I normally don't do is stamp a greeting on the inside of the card. But I did stamp "Happy Birthday" and stamped the star and lightening bolt on the card stock.
