Just for fun

I've had that image from Hambo Stamps coloured up for a while, looking at me accusingly every time I rooted around in my printed digis box.

I had a spare moment today so made a quick card with it.



Now in retrospective I chose wrong papers (Cosmo Cricket), they are totally overpowering the image! Too late now.

The image was coloured with Copics but I don't have colours for it, as I really don't have that long of a memory!


The sentiments were printed onto October Afternoon stickers and then mounted on blue card to match the rest of the matting.



The only embellishments I used are linen thread and a pin from my stash. I don't know how to call those sticky strips full of holes I used for texture, found them in my drawer , lol.

I would like to enter that card into following challenges:
The Crafty Pad - a card for a male
Digital Tuesday - Trend: 80's
Pixie Dust Challenge - Going Round and Round

Thanks for looking and happy crafting!
