Let your dreams fly


     Oh what a week!  I had every intention of doing lots of crafting this week and getting ahead on some DT projects but it was not meant to be.  My head decided to alternate between throbbing and feeling like a drunk bowling ball.  Neither was pleasant.  Gotta love thoses sinuses.  :-)  I'm finally starting to feel better, but I went a very CAS route with my card for Mo's Digital Pencil this week.  I just love this little guy and his kite.  I also took this opportunity to play with a bit more washi tape.  Here's a closer look at him.


Copics Used:
skin E000, E00, E11, E13, R20
hair E21, E23, E25, E27, E29
jacket YG06, YG11, YG17, YG67
shirt BG01, BG07
shorts B91, B95, B97, W3
shoes N3, N5, N7, COO, C2
kite E08, E93, E95, E97

     Our challenge this week is from our sweet Anja who wants to see cards "For the Boys".  There are lots of cuties in Mo's store if you don't have one in your stash.  Don't forget you must use a Mo's image to play along and have a chance at the $5.00 gift voucher.
     Have a wonderful day!

Stamp--Mo's Digital Pencil "Kite"

Oh you poor thing! The sinuses are horrific this year it seems. I honestly don't remember them being this bad in awhile. I had to laugh at the drunk bowling ball visual though...Hahaha.
I love your CAS design H. The coloring is just sensational too!!!
Sorry for the delay in visiting too. I'm on a hiatus until December and the move is completed, but you can't stop me from stalking...bwahahahahaha!!!

I love the simplicity of this card design. First of all, your colouring is spectacular and it really showcases that. Second, it seems like such a simple pleasure (kite-flying) and a simple time of life and I like that your card design reflects that. Third, even with a simple design, you make me drool with your details. The washi tape and button are fabulous together, the doodling suits the image perfectly (is it doodling or kite string?) and your colour palette makes me happy. I hope you are feeling better. Sinus headaches make me a bear!
