I finally sat down to make a card for the latest Color Hues Challenge!
Sometimes I have trouble designing with colors I'm told to use but I loved these two colors!
I was going to go floral - but when I got to my craft room - it morphed into balloons!
Balloons could be for anyone - and these colors make it ok for a masculine birthday card I think?!
I simply stamped the image and sentiment and colored the image with Copics.
I cut the panel to 4"x 5 1/4" so there's a little card base framing just to add some interest!
I got this stamp set as a free gift from Simon Says Stamp several years ago for my birthday. I think I've only used it once before.

Perfect masculine birthday card Julia! Great image to colour with this wonderful combination of blue and brown. xx
Great as a masculine card Julia, but also for just about anyone! CAS and a perfect way to use our challenge colors and also a great way to say Happy Birthday to someone (BIG or small)!! Thanks so much for sharing this FUN card with us at the Color Hues Challenge!! Hugs. :0)
It really is a card that can be used for a man and beautifully colored on the watercolor paper. Thx for the share.
I am very glad that you have used that stamp set again. It works brilliantly with those colours and makes it perfectly masculine xx
I agree - I too have trouble with a lot of colour challenges. But you aced this - the balloons in blue and brown make for a perfect masculine card.
This is a perfect way to use these colors, Julia! It makes a great card for a guy, a gal or a kid of any age! Thanks so much for sharing this with us at Color Hues!
This is a nice birthday card, Julia. Isn't funny how sometimes you can have one direction in mind and low and behold you end up going in an entirely different direction. Thanks for taking the time to join us at Color Hues.
Those colors morphed into a terrific CAS birthday card!
I love that colour combo, and those fun balloons ❤️ Great Birthday card xx
Fabulous balloons, Julia - so great in those colors!!
Why not balloons for a masculine card? I think they look fabulous, Julia! Great shading for the translucent effect on the balloons and a wonderful CAS design. Thank you so much for playing along with us at Color Hues!
