DTC #168 - Have a CRABulous Birthday

This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble Challenge #168 "We Dare You" to create a masculine card and then use Twisted Sister's optional twist to use Colorful Options Color of the Month "Aqua" or use Rainbow Colors. Wasn't sure how these colors would fit into a masculine card... but I think I accomplished it using both aqua and rainbow colors... what do you think?  





Using white cardstock another stamp from Voice in the Sea was stamped with Memento Black Ink, colored with Copic brushes and adhered on the inside corner of the card base.

Please hop on over and join us at Double Trouble and Colorful Options to check out the Design Teams inspiration, and then let us see what you create... hope to see you there.  

You may also like to hop over to Try A Sketch on Tuesday, our Sister challenge, to see the the current sketch for  inspiration and see how easy it might be to combine this challenge as well.
