Hard to believe it's almost September. Our amazing Franz has chosen the theme of "Goodbye Summer" as hostess this week of the challenge at Mo's Digital Pencil. Back to school pretty much signals the end of summer so I decided to use "Harvard" for my card. Isn't he a cutie and look at that A+ on his paper. hee hee While searching for a sketch to use I ran across the current one for Sketch Saturday. I love their sketches and decided to use it for my card.
The idea of a line of pencils popped into my head so I searched the web and found a freebie line drawing of a pencil. I printed it out seven times and lined them across the card. Unfortunately the majority of them is covered up, but I still think it's cute. Here's a close up of Harvard.
Copics Used:
hair E21, E23, E25, E27, E29
skin E000, E00, E11, E13, R20
