Ciao! It's a Color Challenge!

Here's the palette for this week's color challenge at the Outlawz Alcohol Marker Group.


Our challenges this month are sponsored by Ditzie Digi Design, who will be awarding fabulous prizes at the end of the month!

You should go visit my teammates' blogs to check out what they created for this challenge. You can find links to Carla, Dawn, and Penny's blogs down there on the right side.  You should also play along with the challenge and share your project for a chance to win a prize from Ditzie Digi Design. They will be awarding three digis for first prize, two digis for second prize, and one digi for first!

 Here's my project, using the Vespa rider from Kraftin' Kimmie's Let the Good Times Roll set


I had to have the  Let the Good Times Roll set because it had the Vespa rider. I've always found something funny about these scooters and that was exacerbated after seeing Eddie Izzard's Dressed to Kill special, where he did a hilarious bit about Italy. I got out this set and used that image because we're going to see Eddie Izzard's Force Majeure show this Saturday. I'm stoked.


 Anyway, the Vespa rider was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and colored with Copic markers. The image panel was die-cut using a Circles Nestabilities die. The cardstock was cut using my trusty old CM Cutting System. The patterned paper is from the Maritime 6x6 pad by 7 Gypsies. The corner die-cut is SCACD's Contempo Compass Statement Corner. Ancient Doodlebug rub-ons were used to add the "Ciao" sentiment to the Talk Bubbles die-cut by Simon Says Stamp.
