Hi There,
This afternoon I saw the new challenge at CASology-Fun, and an idea popped into my head. I had been thinking of the 'Exotic' challenge at Less is More and the Silhouette challenge at Addicted to CAS for a few days as I wanted to enter both. It wasn't until I saw the 'Fun' challenge that the idea for this idea card came to me. Weird how this happens but great when it does!
This is what I came up with:
The background is made out of brushos and just looks like the most exotic sunset. What could be more fun than dancing the Tango at sunset. The idea came to me quickly but it took me ages to decide what colour panels to put the card onto. I tried lots of ideas and finally came across this cream coloured card that I rarely use as it looks a bit to yellow to me but it seem to go perfectly with the brusho background.
The sentiment is from PTI and the silhouette is from STAMPlorations.
My sister is a superb dancer and this card is going to her.
Have a good day my friends x
I will enter this into:
STAMPloration CAS-gold-could my sunset be golden-if not I go with no twist.
And voila! You nailed it with this one. The warm tone of the cream card stock suits the vibrant colors of the image.
ReplyDeleteFabulous background and thus a fabulous card!
ReplyDeleteGreat combination of challenges, Sandie! I love the silhouetted figures against that vibrant background.

Absolutely spectacular Sandie ... I knew there was a silhouette challenge somewhere that I was hoping to link up too and you've just reminded me! thanks! I'm loving your exotic sunset colours and equally exotic is the dancing scene as if on an exotic beach somewhere. Fantastic take on the Less is More challenge and a superb combo! Thanks so much for sharing with us. Sarah x

Fab combo of fall those challenges Sandie - bet they'd have even more fun if they added a bottle of chardy into the mix!
ReplyDeleteWow, Sandie ... so striking, bold and beautiful ... that background really does look just like a tropical sunset ... oh to be dancing there! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteBeautifully rich Brusho sunset. Love this card.
ReplyDeleteThat sunset really looks like one after a hot day! So good to see such a warm and sunny card! Hugs, Gerrina
ReplyDeleteI love that silhouette, I've seen it in blogland a few times, and it's so perfectly placed with this Brusho background. Great idea to use the cream base too, works perfectly with the warm tones.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing with us.
