That a way!

Hello again,

It's challenge time again!  I love the start of new challenges and oh my are there some very talented crafters out there that I get to swoon over as DT :D

Today I'm here for mid challenge inspiration, and over at Aud Sentiments Challenge Blog the theme is Put the Sentiment on a Tag! We have a fabulous sponser too; the amazing Rick St. Dennis

Here is my DT make for inspiration.....

The image is called That A Way for KAREN - isn't he just magnifcent :D

Here's what I used to make this project:
Image: That A Way for KAREN  by Rick St. Dennis
Colouring: I used Graph'it Marker Pens my favourite alcohol markers; the blues are 7140, 7145, 7160 and they team up great with the oranges.  I used 2105, 2120 & 2130
Background to image:  I used the neutral grey Graph'it marker pens to colour the whole backgroud and the I used the blender pen (chisel nib) to make loads of random marks on the backing...I love the way it turned out (close up pic below).
Embellies:
Balloons are from Just for Men paper collection from Michele R Designs
Star die cut: an old one from Joy Crafts but there new ones can be found at Noor Designs UK store
then the Bits and bobs: bakers twine, mini pegs and bulldog clip from my stash and the little bird is from That Craft Place
Backing papers: from my stash

Now for the close ups:









How much fun is this one :D
