Graph'It Colour Crazy Challenge mid way reminder, Shadow effect

Good Morning All, I hope you are All keeping well, I can't believe its Friday again already, this year is really flying by, Today its time to remind you about our fabulous challenge over at Graph'It colour challenge, this time we want to see shadow effect, for my card I have used one of the gorgeous sailor boy images from Mo Manning, I have coloured him with my Graph'It markers, I went  a bit mad with the shadow effect and ended up creating a floor lol, but I did add some shadow around the image also, the backing papers are from Papermaina, spellbinder border die cutter to make the shaped edges,  metal corners from Dreamees, ribbon anchors and charm are all from stash.
You still have a week to enter, You Do Not Have To Use Graph'It markers, You Can Use Any Markers you have! we have a wonderful prize up for grabs, I do hope you will join in with us, I look forward to seeing your Shadow effects.
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges.

Good morning (here it is 8:05 AM) and I apologize for not telling you happy birthday when I posted yesterday. So HAPPY BIRTHDAY Kevin. Hope there are many more to come.

I love checking out your creativity when you post. Love your coloring and the choices you made in colors and embellishments with this card. You told me to visit other blogs and learn and get inspiration from them and I must tell you that yours is one that is at the top of the list. Thank you.

Donna Ellis said...

Howdy, Kevin! First of all, this is a darling card with the perfect elements for a sailor boy theme, but your shadow effects are wonderful! Love the "floor" with all the texture and how it picks up the colors from the teddy bear a little. The shadow around the Mo-Manning image is fabulous! Love the imagery of layers for the waves and water. Great card! hugs, de
