Marjorie's Color Challenge #21...

For this color challenge Marjorie chose the colors Star Spangled Blue, Cranberry, Topiary Green & Sunflower. I really liked these colors together and knew that I wanted to use the It's A Jungle stamp set when I saw it. This card is simple but I like it (I think!) Anywho it's a 4 x 4 card and I stamped my background using the Spot on Background set with Star Spangled Blue Ink. I added some Topiary Green & Sunflower CS strips to the background and stamped Hello! onto the Sunflower CS in black ink. I stamped my bird onto a piece of White Daisy CS using black ink. I used my coloring pencils to color him in and outlined him in my Cool Gray Copic Marker. I used my scalloped circle punch and punched out a piece of Cranberry CS to layer my bird on. Like I said, nothing much to it...just plain and simple. I am slowly getting back to normal here, just haven't been feeling the best lately. Thanks for stopping by!!! :D

ETA: Ok, I really appreciate all the comments on this card, but all day at work I kept looking at it and wasn't really all that happy with it. I guess I didn't like all the blue paper stamped with that background set and I just felt like it needed something at the bottom. So I changed my card and here is the new one!!! :D All I did was make the Sunflower piece longer and paper pieced it at the bottom. I also added a White Daisy Bigger Brad to each end of my image. Hope you like!!! :D

Here is the first one I did, but I really like the second one much better. I am gonna leave it up here so you can see the difference.
