THE OUTLAWZ TUESDAY COLOUR CHALLENGE

I seem to have made a lot of monochromatic cards lately, and today's challenge at The Outlawz has a monochromatic palette too:


I used a store bought card topper and sentiment, some offcuts of DP and created this masculine birthday card:


Other items from my stash to create this are were:

white CS card base
blue CS card mats
square gems
round gems silver cord
sparkly button

My brother is a keen sailor, and perhaps I shall keep this for his next birthday.

I would like to add this card to the following challenges:
 
ABC CHALLENGES, #41, LOTS OF LAYERS (10)
CRAFTY CARDMAKERS, #98, FUN IN THE SUN (15)
{PIN}SPIRATIONAL, #71, (I WAS INSPIRED BY THE BEACH, SURF AND THE COLOURS)

    This is fabulous Jen. The circle gem at the top of the card puts me in mind of a porthole and is therefore perfect for this card with it's fabulous boat image.

    Thanks for sharing with us
