Bellariffic challenge with a sketch

Happy Friday!  This weeks Bellariffic challenge is a sketch.  This was a great sketch to play with, although I just changed the top part of the sketch to suite my image better.  Other than that I followed it pretty close.



Still being on the 'guy' kick of card making, I pulled out Beer Peep to colour this week. Now not being a beer drinker myself, wasn't sure what colours to do the bottle in, so I winged it.  I started by stamping the image on bella's bestest paper,
then coloured using primsacolour pencils.  Designer paper is from Basic Grey 6x6 pack called Oliver.  Like I said earlier I changed the layout of the top part just because it fit better with the image.

Finished with some stitching a brad, oh, and a bit of glitter on the lime!

I'm sure there is a lot of yumminess over on Bloggabella, so be sure to stop by and take a look.

There will be no challenge next week (July 1) but if you would like to get ahead and work on the challenge for July 8, the theme is 'Use ribbon on your card" yep, it's that easy, so please play along and email Emily your card by july 7.

Have a wonderful weekend!
Pauline
