I've coloured Louie with promarkers, and I was very happy to at last find a colour combo that works for me for colouring bears! I actually like how my bear turned out for a change :o) You might not like it, but if you want to try it the colours are - Raw Sienna, Mustard, Pastel Yellow and Vanilla (on Elegance Satin card from Joanna Sheen). I spent all morning trying different colour combos out and it's really quite sad how excited I was when I finally got it lol!
The papers are Cosmo Cricket, with black and red cardstock from Papermill Direct. The flower is my usual Memory Box cherry blossom die, with a pearl brad centre. The corner was cut with a Whimsy die, the buttons and red pearl are from my stash.
I'm entering my card for the following challenges:
- Cupcake Craft - bright as a button
- Crafty Bloggers - anything goes
- Papertake Weekly - anything goes
- Craft Your Days Away - teddy bears
- Everybody Art - dots
I've not really done anything to tell you about today - I've been waiting in for hubby's new monitor to be delivered... it's his birthday in a couple of weeks and that's what he's chosen as his 'big' prezzie, and he now owes me something big for my birthday lol. Hope you've had a lovely day, will be round to do some catching up later :o)
