Loving football bear and snowfall

Hi everyone, a card today for Secret Crafters Saturday Challenge and a theme of at the Zoo, so I've used my football loving bear image available here and coloured with markers. I've cut the bear out with a nestabilities ova abd also cut some with scalloped ovals from coredinations card which has been embossed and sanded and kraft card which is also used for the card blank. The background paper and strip between the image and scalloped ovals is Pink Petticoat pretty doodles mini set which I printed out in chocolate and white and sponged with vintage photo distress ink. The sentiment is a Studio G stamp which I went over with a clear glitter gel pen. I added the ribbon and doodled in white gel pen around the scallops of the oval and the edge of the card.

Materials:
Digital Image: 'Loving football bear' Sketching Stamper Digi-stamps.
Sentiment stamp: Studio G
Colouring: Promarkers in vanilla, apricot, terracotta, cocoa, black, warm grey 2 and 3, raw sienna. Ranger Distress Ink in Vintage Photo
Card/paper: A4 Kraft card from The Craft Barn, Pink Petticoat paper dowload 'Pretty Doodles' in chocolate
Embellishment: white gel pen, chocolate ribbon, heart gems, sandpaper, clear sparkle gel pen, Paisley embossing folder

I hope you've all had a safe day in all the snow. There's been more snow here on the South Coast than I've seen for years. No children went to school and not many Daddies either by the looks of all the huge snowmen outside LOL! It was a lovely atmosphere with everyone outside enjoying themselves. I think we must have had about six inches of snow during the night and it continued until mid afternoon, I took a quick pic of the table in the garden which shows the depth of it, I couldn't get over it really.

BasicGrey Challenge 20 - Sketch

Hi everyone, Saturday again and time for another BasicGrey challenge and some fantastic inspiration for this week from the DT, I hope you can join in.
..."This week we have another sketch for you to follow, you can resize and even flip the sketch but please make sure that the original sketch can be recognized easily in your creations, feel free to also add any other embellishments etc to your creations and of course not forgetting to use at least one item from BasicGrey".
I enjoyed working with this great sketch created by Martine, well I love all her sketches actually! I've used BG Bittersweet papers for my layers and Kraft card which has been edged with Ranger Distress ink and the piece under the image embossed and sponged with the ink. The image is my new stamp design for Kadoodle, 'Frilly Flowers' and is marker coloured and glazed with glossy accents and then stickles to give an enamal effect (hopefully)! I stamped the little row of hearts instead of a sentiment, outlined them with a clear gel pen and added stickles to the centres. To finish I pierced all around the edge of the card using a Tim Holtz piercing ruler and added a BasicGrey Boxer Brad.

I hope you're having a great weekend so far. TFL.
Chris
