For a Little Guy...

Well, it's finally Saturday....and I'm hoping for a relaxing weekend!  This week was very busy with doctor visits and appointments, so I'm looking forward to staying home for a bit.  Perhaps Mr. Mojo will drop in for a visit....


I thought I would make a card for one of my 'Little Guys' (aka Grandsons), as I had been wanting to play with this image from Just Inklined for a while.  This one is titled James Brum, and was such fun to colour using copics and a bit of pencil for shading.  I've cut it out with my newest Nestie (labels 23), adding some DI to define the edges.  I've used some kraft paper and a couple of pattern papers, still staying with nice soft colours, then adding a bit of doodle/stenciling to give the idea of motion.  No added embellishments, so definitely a child safe card!

A few fun challenges for more inspiration:

Paper Sundaes - #115 Sundae Bar (kraft & die)

Saturday Challenge - #181 Male Theme
