WWC232 – Anything Goes Challenge

A blog about cardmaking and papercrafting.
Crafty Catz Anything Goes Challenge #465
Update: I was very pleased to see that my card received the \”Sweet Sprinkles Award\” at Pile It On Challenge.
My nephew plays Lacrosse for Tufts University and he was recently injured and tore his ACL. He had surgery to repair his knee and I wanted to send him a Get Well card. He loved the card! I think it is cute with a bit of humor. Masculine cards are perhaps the trickiest so I knew I wanted to submit this card for WWC204 – Gail\’s Masculine \”Anything Goes\” Challenge Stop by and see what the other artists created and then create your entry.
The dog is from one of my go to stamp sets for Get Well Cards- Art Impressions Doggy Kisses. I colored the pup with copic markers, added a bit of shadow underneath the dog and mounted on a gray A2 card.
Thanks for stopping by!

I finished the card with pink, orange and yellow paint spatters. I always love that look on other people\’s cards but don\’t often use it on my own.
I included this second picture because I love the gold shimmery glow the heat embossing creates.
I\’ve entered this card in:
The Watercooler Wednesday \”Anything Goes\” Challenge. I love their prompts and frequently submit a card.
Addicted to Stamps Anything Goes Challenge I love their broad prompts which make it easy to play along.
Happy Little Stampers Watercolor Challenge I go through a lot of Get Well cards so this Challenge is great for me.
Update: I was so pleased to see that I was selected as a Watercolour Challenge Favourite at Happy Little Stampers!
Thanks for stopping by!

I needed some more Get Well cards for men and decided this statement sentiment (Ranger Letter It Greetings) would be fun paired with the birds from SSS\’s Stacking Animals. I thought the baby bird hanging upside added a light element to the card. I mounted my card base on a \”gravel\” colored card to add to the masculine theme.
Sunday Stamps has a Summer Splash Color Challenge and I used their color palette as my inspiration.
I love Watercooler Wednesday\’s prompts and am also entering this card in their Masculine Card Challenge.
Since this card features animals, I am also entering it in the current Sunny Day Challenge.
This is a CAS card and I wanted it bold so I embossed the sentiment and birds in a glossy black and then colored with Copic markers. So fast and easy as I only used three colors: B24, B29 and YR07.
UPDATE: I was pleased to see this card was selected as a \”Watercooler Rocker\”!
Thanks for stopping by,
