I went back to a technique I haven't used in awhile, color blocking. It is such an easy technique to do, and I needed a simple masculine themed card and I thought this did the trick.
I started the card with a card base of Crumb Cake Card Stock, and then added a layer of Riding Hood Red. Next came my layer of Very Vanilla and to do the color blocking, I punched a 1 1/4" Square onto a piece of scrap paper and sponged Basic Gray ink in the opening the punch created onto my Very Vanilla layer. I then punched a 1 3/4" Circle and sponged Riding Hood Red in the opening, and finally I used my Big Shot to cut my Scallop Rectangle Clearlit and sponged Not Quite Navy into the opening.
You can create any type of design, just make sure to use a large enough piece of scrap paper so that when you are sponging your ink into the opening you don't get any ink into areas you don't want covered.
