OLW 40 Two for the show

Jennifer at Styles Ink described her current One Layer Wednesday challenge as a bit tricksy.  I tend to agree.  She was very strict, limiting us to two stamps and neither could be a sentiment. She also limited us to heat embossing or colouring with markers!

I was a bit stumped until I remembered these stamps from the Extreme collection.  I coloured directly onto the splat image with markers then misted it before stamping on the card front.  The surfer and the skater are both embossed in black.

It is always good to have a few boy cards in reserve, the inspiration does not always come when I need it!

Supplies:

Stamps: Extreme Surfboard, Extreme Skateboard, Extreme Elements
Inks: Versamark, Tempting Turquoise, Brilliant Blue, Baja Breeze, Yoyo Yellow, Only Orange, Real Rust.
Cardstock: Flourishes Classic White
Also:  Black e.p.
