Climb Every Mountain: Sketch Challenge #6

First I linked my entire post to the S&S blog... no, Caro, that's not how you do it. Then I visited a blog on S&S to comment on how lovely the card was and it did all kinds of crazy shenanigans to my poor laptop which took about 20 minutes to recover and much "rebooting" so maybe this card isn't meant to be ;) I have a glass of wine now (Facebook: A Glass of Wine Solves Everything) and if Facebook is right (and we know it always is!), I might get this right in the next 20 minutes.

Skipped last week's sketch as I was busy pondering my color challenge and this one was a bit challenging. I try not to look at the other cards that have been done, or not many of them, but again am in a "guy" mode (for the last time till Dad's Day cards next month) having done the shirt card a couple weeks ago and then the "gender neutral" (is that the appropriate term?) or masculine cards for most of my "15/15" cards last week. Shirt card will be reprised for Father's Day. This "thank you," "gracias," "merci" card is meant to be a card for a guy to send a guy. I used double sided scraps of Quick Quotes paper and colored in a few of the stripes and the "bullseye" area of the message circle with Copic Red 46.
