Splitcoast Challenges Card

The Splitcoast Stampers Website posts a weekly color and sketch challenge. This week the colors were Basic Gray, Pink Pirouette, and Rose Red. I used these colors and the sketch to create a really elegant card. I used patterned paper from Bella Birds and Raspberry Tart for my Pink Pirouette and Rose Red. I used the Basic Gray as a neutral to layer the other papers (something I have been doing more of lately and I like the look).

I created my rectangle and square panels and applied to card base. Next I stamped my image using Palette Noir Black and using a Rose Red and Garden Green marker I colored it in. To get my pink, I used the pad and squeezed some of the ink on the lid. Then using a dry aqua painter I painted the pink color on where I needed it.
I had some wide ribbon I had gotten from an online share by Jody that matched the Pink Pirouette. Stacey from Twinshappy Blog did a post for several different knots she uses on her cards. I decided to try one of her knots on this card. I like the look it adds to the card. Here is the sketch and my creation.
