Good morning everyone - hope you are enjoying the weekend. It's a sunny day here today so I think I may venture out shopping this afternoon. I really need to get down to some Chrimbo shopping but I'm not feeling inspired right now ... people are so difficult to buy for lol!!
Anyhoo here is a quick post of card I made for my work team-mate's birthday yesterday.
I kept this card very simple as I think men prefer it that way. The colours are shades of bright blue for a reason ... my teamie Simon is a big Everton fan, which clearly indicates he's the right sort! :-)
I have recently been experimenting with a new combo of pens for colouring teddies' fur - James is coloured using Tan, March Hare, Putty and Almond Promarkers plus Light Fawn and Antique White Flexmarkers. He actually looks a bit darker than the pictures suggest, but I think I like this colour combo.
Stamps: LotV "Cheers Bear"; Penny Black sentiment from "Salutations" set;
Media: Promarkers and Flexmarkers;
Supplies: twine and button from The Ribbon Girl.
Challenges:
Raise The Bar #119 - Birthday

So do I Pauline - like your colour combo that is! Love it in fact. Your card is a great example of a CAS card. Hope Simon enjoyed his special card, and caught the significance of your colours.

Hi Pauline, ooh yes I agree fab colour combo for his fur - I don't colour bears very often for that reason, can't get the fur right!
Lovely CaS card - the twine and ribbon is a perfect finishing touch.
