I pulled out my Colour Coach today to find a colour combination that would be a little different & for colours that I would never think to use together.  I went with the “Getting Started” Combination, which has gone perfectly with today’s card.

I’ve used the sketch from Clean and Simple which just cries for a clean & simple card!

I’ve also combined it with my groups weekly challenge for Late Night Stampers.  Challenge 108 – Let’s Hear it for the Boys – Masculine Cards

Base Card – Old Olive – 5 7/8″ x 4 1/8″ or 15cm x 10.5cm – cut, score & fold in half

Layer 1 – Marina Mist – 5 7/8″ x 2″ or 15cm x 5cm

Layer 2 – Real Red – 2 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ or 10cm x 6cm

Layer 3 – Whisper White – 2 3/8″ x 3 3/8″ x 9.5cm x 5.5cm

For my card, I randomly stamped Marina Mist Cardstock using Marina Mist Ink.  I then adhered this down the LHS of Old Olive.  Using Marina Mist Ink, I stamped the image directly onto the Whisper White.  I stamped the greeting in Real Red Ink off to the right of Whisper White Cardstock.  I adhered this to Real Red Cardstock & tore the bottom of the Real Red Cardstock. 

Using Hemp Twine, I tied this around the middle of the Whisper White & adhered the whole lot to the base card.  I threaded a piece of Hemp Twine through a buttom & adhered to the card.
