Wot no....

flowers??

Hi blogworld

There you go aren't I being good to you - two posts in two days!!  Don't expect it to last though ;-)

The reason for this post is that there is a new challenge over at The Cutie Pies and this time we would like to see your creations without flowers!  Wot no flowers at all - yep that's right, not a one!

We are sponsored this time by Bugaboo Stamps and there is a fab prize on offer - pop on over and take a peek, you'll be happy you did!

D'you know I thought this would be easy but then looked at what I have and had second thoughts. So I took the easy route and did a boy's card!

This is the end result:

 Detail of image:


No time for the arty-farty this time!

I used:

Digi image:
Bugaboo - Deacon bugs (which does actually have flowers in the full image, so I cut him out!!)
coloured with my Pro and Flex markers

Dies
Circular nestie

Papers:
Basic Grey - archaic
echo park - Splash

Anything else?
Twine and star charm from my stuff

There you go, hope you like and please pop on over to the challenge blog and join in - you'll be more than welcome.

Cheerio
Sarah

PS - On the final countdown now - only tomorrow and then She Who Must be Obeyed (who is currently crying at the end of Charlottes Web - Charlotte dies you know, I'd forgotten that bit!) is back at school and I then only have to fight the kittens for craft space!!!!

This is fab. I used that image for a DT card recently. Never thought about cutting him out and using him as a fisherman! What a fab idea......
