CAS Colours & Sketches #179

Hey!

I'm here today with my CAS Colours & Sketches DT card for this weeks challenge. Excited again, as I am hosting the challenges over there this month, which means I have picked the colour combinations and designed the sketches for you to use and hopefully inspire you to create and play along :)

This week HERE, is sketch week and this is the sketch I came up with...





A fun and super simple sketch (well I think so), allowing for your creativity to flow :) Anyway, this is how I used it...



Again I have gone for a tropical theme. I am just loving the new hibiscus flower from the new Uniko Paradise clear stamp set ;) 

This time I have paired it with the I LOVE Coffee clear stamp set and a mix sentiment from I LOVE Tea. My reason for this is because of the Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop is taking place right now! There is so much fun happening over HERE right now, with so many wonderful prizes up for grabs, including one from Uniko! PLUS I have a giveaway on THIS post, be sure to stop by and comment for a chance to win. 



With a tropical card, I needed tropical colours and it just so happens that this weeks colour combination at the Color Throwdown HERE and seen below are tropical.




I kept my card really simple, stamping the coffee cup and sentiment first in black ink. I then stamped the hibiscus flowers in SU! Pixie Pink and Melon Mambo with the centre in Summer Sun. The panel is mounted onto a Lucky Limeade card base using foam adhesive, after rounding the bottom right corner. I added two white enamel dots to represent the sketch details.




That's all from me just now, I hope to be back later with more to share. For now though I am off to enjoy a few bean free hours and the sunshine! 

Be sure to check out the CC&S Design Team inspiration HERE and I hope to see you in the gallery too this week! 

Thanks for stopping by :)
