Happy Hump Day all!
It's all downhill from here! Yay!!!
It's time for our Inspirational Challenge over at
Here's your Inspiration!
You can take from the picture what you like & use it as your inspiration
to create a product for a Dude!
Here's my card!
I took the turkey, the shape of the turkey's tail feathers,
some of the colours & the lady!
The image I have used is Fanny Thanks by Marloony for Dude Time Doodles!
She's a real doll & has cooked up a treat for her man!
At least I think she's going to share it! lol!!!
As we don't celebrate Thanksgiving here in UK I opted to make a
Christmas card!
Turkey is generally the order of the day for Christmas dinner!
I made an easel card as I haven't made one for ages & was
having major withdrawl symptoms!
The base was cut using a Grand Nestabillities Label die.
I then inked the edges using a cats's eye inkpad!
I added mats of red foil paper & green Christmas tree DP.
Not sure where the DP is from it's been in my stash for a while!
I paper pieced Fanny & finished colouring with Promarkers!
I then cut her out with a nestie & matted & layered with
textured red foil paper, then white card which
was also edged with an inkpad!
Not sure if you can make out the sentiment?
Here it is a bit closer, it says
"Condiments Of The Seasoning!"
The only embellishments I added are some die cut snowflakes which
I layered with foam tape!
I do hope you can come & play along in the Challenge!
