It's that time of the week again for the Crafty Collaborations Monochromatic Challenge. Can you believe we are already at Week 15? It's crazy how fast this year is going by. This week's color is Misty Moonlight, one of my favorite blues and I am excited to share the card I created to showcase this beautiful color.
For my card design, I chose to use the Fractured Card technique to create a fun masculine card design. I am also giving some of my favorite retiring products a final send off and for this design I chose to use the He's All That stamp set and coordinating All That Dies along with the Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper. I love the texture in the Misty Moonlight designs from this paper pack and it was perfect for this card. Instead of using Basic White as my neutral, I chose to use Gray Granite to coordinate with one of the designer series paper patterns. I think it helps give the design a bit of a grunge look. What do you think?

To create this fun card design, I chose two of the Misty Moonlight patterns from the Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper to create the look of the fractured card. I used a piece of Basic White cardstock for the base layer and added a Misty Moonlight square to the center of the card front as the focal point for the design. I then added the Gray Granite strips around the outside edges of the square to create the fractured look. Using scraps of the designer series papers, I alternated the different designs and adhered them to the open spaces, flush with the Gray Granite strips and then trimmed the excess to have the card front be the finished size of 5" x 3 3/4". For the focal image, I stamped the image using Misty Moonlight Classic ink onto Gray Granite cardstock and then die cut it out using the scalloped circle from the All That Dies. I adhered it to the center of the square using Stampin' Dimensionals to pop it up. I attached the card front layer to the Gray Granite cardstock layer and then to the Misty Moonlight card base. To finish off the design, I colored several of the White Classic Matte Dots using the Dark Misty Moonlight Stampin' Blends Marker and added them to the top and bottom strips. I love how this card turned out and I think it's the perfect masculine card design.
