CardzTV DT Challenge #13: Color Challenge

If you are looking for the Digi Haven Challenge: click here.

This is CardzTV with Mary Clear Stamps Challenge and this time, we have a color challenge. Aren't they so much fun...and a lot of freedom. The challenge runs from the 17th until the 23rd and the winner will receive one of Mary's CardzTV stamp sets. Here are the colors: Marigold Yellow, Royal Blue, Rich Purple and Gray (you may use small amounts of Black and White also).

I have a birthday coming up, so I made myself a card. (Can you tell how I am feeling about it?)

Finished Card: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"

Materials:
Cardstock: White, Black, Marigold Yellow, Royal Blue and Patterned Paper
Cricut Cartridge Over The Hill Cake, page 15 (Buttons 21 and 31)
CardzTV with Mary Clear Stamps Make a Wish, "Over the Hill"
Cuttlebug Embossing Folder D'Vine Swirls
Cuttlebug Embossing Folder Spiderweb
Martha Stewart Edge Punch Drippy Goo
Clear Glitter
Inkssentials Glossy Accents
White, Purple and Gray Pigment Ink
Studio G Mini Spider Punch
Mounting Tape

Not my usual style card...

I used purple pigment ink on the candelabra and gray on the stand. I thought the candles would stand out more with the Glossy Accents and the flames with glitter.

Guess my mood is also due to work and all the Halloween/Fall merchandise coming in. Add to it that I injured myself (at work)...Popped a rib out of place...I know, You did what? Yep that's what I said, Popped a rib. (I didn't know you could do such a thing!) However, I went to the chiropractor (twice) and he popped it back into place. Who knew?....

Hope you decide to join the challenge. Please leave a comment.

imagine what you could do...

Side note:
(lol I had pre-posted the card for the Digi Haven Challenge and I hope you check it out...I think it is certainly ironic!...especially the inside sentiment. lol)

RIP Your Youth

Over at Die Cuttin' Diva's, they are having a color challenge...Purple, Orange and Black. Now when I think of those colors together, I immediately think of Halloween.  Well, what's the next best thing? How about an "Over the Hill" birthday.

Inside:

Finished Card: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"

Materials:
Cardstock: White, Purple, Black and Orange/Black Patterned
Cricut Cartridge Over the Hill Tombstone, Buttons 24 and 34, "Over the Hill" Button 41 and "RIP" Button 43
Charcoal Chalk
Partial Computer Sentiments ("Your Youth" and "It's Official You are")
Mounting Tape

It may be a little difficult to see but between the orange/black patterned card stock and the black base card, there is a layer of purple card stock. When you see it in person, it has a kind of glow...actually it's a little eerie looking. I cut apart the "RIP" so I could make it fit on the tombstone. I chalked the tombstone, around the letters and the edges of the inside to make everything appear old and creepy. I think I might stamp "Happy Birthday" on the inside before using it.

Spent some time in the garden yesterday afternoon (a lot of weeding and a little planting)...boy, was my back hurting last night, but I really felt like I got something accomplished. Hopefully, I'll feel ok to get back in there today...we'll see.

Enjoy the day. Thanks for dropping by...
