After not getting my card up in time for the last challenge over at Just Add Ink, I decided to get in nice and early with this one. This week we need to add 'grunge'. I find it a little difficult to 'dirty' up my cards so I took inspiration from Nikki and did a little chalkboard technique with my cute skull guy. You'll notice a couple of other similarities to Nikki's card - I did say I would CASE hers one day. It's the first time I've used my snazzy new chevron border punch too - pretty cool!
It's very sunny here today and a little dull indoors so I took my card outside - I'm no photographer so you'll just have to excuse the shadows and over exposure *blush*.
My colour combo is Basic Black, Smoky Slate and Calypso Coral. Now if I didn't live in Australia (where we don't traditionally celebrate) you could mistake this for a Halloween card. I have this in mind for a cool dude turning 14 in a few weeks.
Thanks for visiting today. Hope you're enjoying your weekend wherever in the world you are!
