Passion For Promarkers - sketch

Before I get on to my card - sorry I haven't drawn a winner for my candy yet!  I didn't get chance yesterday, so I'll be doing it later and will post the result this afternoon.

So, our challenge this week at Passion For Promarkers is a fab sketch created by the lovely Tracy... a sketch which made me panic slightly because there are lots of layers - well, lots for me anyway!  But I'm really happy with the result, so I think I need to start being braver with the sketches I attempt.  We're sponsored by Sugar Nellie so there'll be a fab prize for our lucky winner :o)




I've used one of the fab Maurice images from Pollycraft, coloured with promarkers and flexmarkers, with some glamour dust on his hat.  The papers are from a Trimcraft pack I think, with textured red cardstock from Papermill Direct.  I did lots of inking around all the papers for a change, added some spotty ribbon and pearls from my stash, and a Craftwork Cards sentiment.

Here's Tracy's fab sketch



I'm entering my card for the following challenges:

As usual I'm very behind with commenting, so I'm going to try and have a big catch up... I should probably be doing housework but I won't let that stop me lol :o)  Back later to announce my candy winner, hope you all have a lovely day!

Hi Lisa, what a wonderful card! Love that image and your colouring and colour scheme.

I would rather craft than do housework as well - but had to hoover today, as I'd not done it for ages! Still put off the dusting until another day though ;-)
