Beast Wishes!

I promised another card with this color challenge and here it is :) I have had this Hambo Stamps image for years and had not used it yet. I think Monstermaniacs made me do it, hehe! And you can't see this, but he is a sparkly monster. I had used my blender pen to apply Shimmer Paint to the images on a bunch of wedding favors and I think the blender pen is now permanently sparkly. Oops!

This Friday Mashup challenge was to use Coastal Cabana, Crushed Curry, Smokey Slate, and Basic Gray (or with a cake theme, or both). This post will go live after the challenge ends.

Card sketch courtesy of Try Stampin' on Tuesday! I took a few liberties with it :) 

I embossed and sanded the Smokey Slate block behind the main image, but that may have been a waste of work since you barely see it. I did try a white panel with sewing machine stitching around it, but it just didn;t feel right. I'm OK with the Smokey Slate outline, but not loving it. Can't win them all, can you! I hope that I am improving on coloring my images. There are so many talented coloring masters out there and I know I am not one of them :)
