Challenge Card Sails Along with Color


As Hannibal would say (A-Team), "I love it when a plan comes together."
I love this card, when all the patterned papers, paper piecings and bright colors are put together! Using another Hambo Stamps digi-image, BALLOON, I arranged CTMH and Paper Pizzazz patterned papers on a square card base. I then used Copics to color three layers of my image. The first layer is pure Copic-colored; the second image is on top of the first, and includes patterned paper-piecing on the balloon; the third layer is of the high-flying girl and the basket, all Copic-colored. The layers are put together with dimensional tape, and all lie on a multi-colored star cut from another piece of patterned paper and outlined in black.
I embellished with MS grossgrain ribbon bow, a colored and shaped paper clip, pearls that form tails off the background stars, and finally, an unused cell phone charm!!! The sentiment comes with the digi-image, which you can find at HAMBO STAMPS.
When you visit their blog, be sure to check out their challenge of the week. Just by entering the challenge, you will receive a free digi. If you win the challenge, like I just did, you get a prize(I got to choose an image from their store--LUCKY ME!).
If that isn't enough, you can always check out the challenge blogs on the right sidebar. Have fun!
