ONE FOR THE BOYS......

Well Monday's here again and what a gorgeous start to the week weather wise :0),hope you all had a great weekend.
My card today is for two challenges DU2DS "ONE FOR THE BOYS" and i've followed the sketch from this week's FRIDAY SKETCHERS....i really enjoyed working with sketch,one i would use again.
The digital image is one of Victoria Case's "MARTINI",coloured using Promarkers and Prisma's,then i've cut her out...the glass i've stuck down flat but i have shaped and raised her using Pinflair glue gel...this is not showing in the photo but looks good IRL.
The sentiment is Amy R one from the Birthday sentiments set.
Basic Grey papers "Archaic"...each layer edged with "Black Soot" distress ink.
The punched out border was done using a Martha Stewart punch "Embossed Zigzag".
The tiny round brads are Basic Grey "Archaic"which match with the paper and the square ones which i have used in a diamond shape are Avec.
Spellbinders Nesties used are:- "Oval" and "Lables 10".
I've used a real cocktail stick for the olive...just made a small slit and pushed it througth.
Well that's about it folks.....enjoy your day
Take care

SKETCH SATURDAY #55...."CHILLAXING".

Morning everyone...haven't entered the Sketch Saturday challenge for such a long time,well to be honest don't get to enter many challenges now other than the one's i'm on the DT for....too little time :0(.

I needed to make a couple of the dreaded men's cards and when i saw this weeks sketch it was perfect for the image i wanted to use on one of them...had to go for it!

The image is from Victoria Case Art Design's "Chillaxin"...i love her work!,coloured with Promarkers and Prisma's...not much colouring actually i wanted to paper piece the chair,i've cut it out and raised it using dimensional tape.The papers are Pink Petticoat "His 'n' Hers" and the sentiment i've done with Doodlebug "all mixed up"rub-ons,button's from stash.Not alot to it...but just how i wanted it!

Well hope you all have a good Sunday
