King of the Road

Here we go, with another fun image from Dr Digi's House of Stamps, titled Mobility Malcolm.  With the golden years fast approaching, perhaps we should start checking out some new wheels.  My younger brother likes to hit the road on a smart red motorcycle.  I'm thinking maybe this model and colour combo would be perfect when he has to trade up to four wheels.  We'll see what he says at his birthday.  lol

I've used a Kraft card today, that I purchased from Michaels.  As it isn't as heavy a card as I would have liked, I've added another layer in behind.  Once again I've coloured with copics, adding pan pastels for the yellow background.

The winds are howling outside, as I type this, but hopefully the weather man's forecast for better weather will come true.  Come on spring...  please!

Take care, and thanks for visiting.

Not meant for crafting...

Good morning!  Are you ready for a new challenge at Charisma Cardz?  This time our theme is to Use something that is not meant for crafting.  I had a bit of difficulty with this one....I thought everything was meant for crafting!  lol.  Be sure to check out what the rest of the DT is sharing, and I'm really looking forward to seeing what you can come up with.

My card today uses the image...Dishcloth Dave, available from Dr Digi, one of our sponsors.  He's been coloured with copics, then cut out using the Spellbinders Labels Twenty Three die and the 'out of the box technique'.  Liquid applique adds some dimension to the soap suds, and I added a bit more to the sentiment.

Searching for that little something for our theme, I found some packaging string.  After untwisting, I tucked it in behind the top layers and fastened with staples.  This layer is attached with foam tabs, which gives added dimension plus allows for the extra thickness of the string.  The scraggy bits of string give a bit of a look of a scrub brush.

So onto our sponsors.  This week we have three, with some lovely prizes.

  
Prize 1

Prize 2

(5 digis of winner's choice)

Prize 3
