This week's Taylored Expressions Share Joy Challenge was a bit challenging for me. I know I only have to use the sketch or the challenge, but I always like to push myself to see if I can incorporate both.
I kept finding three things I wanted to incorporate, but those three things weren't in a row. I needed a masculine card for a friend's birthday this week, so I finally settled on the top row – gradient/ombre; enamel dots & no patterned paper.
I inked the Taylored Expressions Splatter embossed paper with Red Barn Distress ink to create the gradient effect. I added two enamel dots to my tag featuring the die cut Birthday Treat Toppers. The sentiment is from Big Bold Birthday.


Oooh! This is fantastic! I love the sponging you did on the embossed paper and your fantastic color combo! Thanks for joining us for this week’s Share Joy Challenge!
