Combining challenges can be a creative kick start to a card creation. Today, The Play Date Cafe color challenge meets the Card Positioning Systems sketch challenge. Once you have a color scheme and a sketch. everything else is in the details. This Bright Heart Card features a embossed background enhanced with the sponging technique. This technique comes in handy when I don't have patterned paper with the right colors. I love how this one turned out. Have a happy and crafty Saturday!
