Bugaboo Style is exactly what my husband enjoys when it comes to cards made for him...
so today's card is made according to the February Catch The Bug Challenge guidelines --
KEEP IT SIMPLE
No Glitter - no metallics -
Simple it is - colored with my beloved Prisma Color Pencils (they had been squealing with neglect)!
This card is all about Light!
Jack is my Light during my hardest trials and deepest physical difficulties.
He is always there - patiently helpful and lovingly supportive.
So without further ado - here is my Valentine "Jack Style"!
Products used:
Bugaboo's "You Light Up My Life"
SB Marvelous Squares, SB Squares, SB Decagons (interior)
Prisma Color Pencils, Straw Distress Ink
Computer Generated Sentiment
Happy Valentine's Day to everyone - the tradition began with a compassionate man - and it is still all about being compassionate and kind toward not only the needy, but to those we care deeply for.
love,
I love this card and your coloring really brings it to life! Have a great Valentine's Day! ❤️❤️❤️

I love Jodie's fun images, this one is no exception. Haven't colored it up yet myself, haven't had a design idea for it yet. Love what you did, adding several layers but keeping it all simple. Hope your hubby loved it, from your description it does sound like this is cup of tea. I love it.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful Donna. Such lovely colouring.

I am loving this flat and no ado card. You are just so creative and I like what you say about being compassionate on Valentine's day. I wish I could be that way too. Sometimes it takes me a while to heal and bring back the compassionate factor in me.
ReplyDeleteFor Valentine's day, I gave cards to my girls and a heart shaped chocolate and I baked heart shaped cookies for the girls.
Lots of love,

How sweet and what a nice thing to say about Jack. I think this is a perfect Valentine's card. Love yellow with red and I also love Jodie's Bugaboo images. Like the die cut and the holes you added looks great. Wonderful job and the perfect CAS card.

Some amazing pencil coloring, those lights just glow so well. I like the masculine look of this design, ditto on the colors. I also liked that you sneaked in just a bit of 'dress up' with the little white mat...added a nice touch without being frilly. Good contrast to the other mat colors. I KNOW DH liked this one! You used that image wonderfully well. TFS & Hugs
ReplyDeleteWow Donna, you rocked the clean and simple!! I love how you created interest by using contrasting colours and a fun image, what a fabulous masculine make!! hugs for now :)
ReplyDeleteWonderfull Valentine's day card Donna !Love this design for a masculine card !
ReplyDeleteFabulous design !
Oh Donna, this is positively delightful and so perfect for him! I love all that it represents. You've worked so beautifully with the image and I love the color palette and layers. Wonderfully done as always, my sweet friend. Sending tons of love and hugs your way.
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,

ReplyDeleteWhat? No glitter? Did you suffer from withdrawal pains, LOL? The card looks great. I love the papers you chose for the multiple matting. Perfect for this card. Great job on the coloring! You even got the highlights on the metal parts. I love Prismacolor pencils too.
