It’s time for a double challenge at CAS – Colours and Sketches!  Since it’s the fifth Thursday this month, we’re asking our challenge participants to create a card using the colors and sketch that our hostess, Karen, has provided.

The colors Karen chose are very pretty, but I have to admit I had a difficult time with them.  I made a card, but I didn’t really like the way it turned out.  So I went back to the proverbial drawing board.  I’m not sure why or how the thought of using my reinkers came to mind, but it did – so I created this watercolored background with them.  I decided to turn the sketch on its side, and the scene kind of pulled together from there.  It may not be the most realistically colored sunrise (or sunset) but I’m going with it.

Now it’s your turn to show us what you can create with the colors and the sketch! You have until 1:00 p.m. eastern time Wednesday, February 5 to link your work to the challenge post. Be sure to check out the rest of the design team’s creations for more inspiration.  Thanks for stopping by today!
