Simon Says - is it time to play ball?
When I saw this digi at Gingerloft I fell in love! There's an odd mixture of arty, almost photographic images like this in their store and also cartoons that are not my cup of tea. But there are some gorgeous images I couldn't resist and I took a few minutes the other night to colour this chap in with watercolour pencils.
I've roughly followed the sketch at Simon Says this week to make my card, though the image is out of proportion. The DP is Crate Paper, I've punched out rudbeckias and given them black brad centres; the rudbeckias in the images have black Stickled centres. Ribbon was white coloured with a honey Copic.
My card is for the following challenges:
The Crazy Challenge - animals
Fuzzy Wuzzy - anything goes, use an animal
Creative Cowgirls - something new (digi)
Simon Says - sketch
