Crafty Calendar June Challenge



Hello, hope you're enjoying a pleasant Sunday afternoon. A quick post from me- still playing Catch-Up after my holiday. This card is for our June Challenge over at Crafty Calendar, which is sponsored by
 All Dressed Up, the theme is 'Anything Goes'
The image I have used isNew Hair Do, so sweet. I've used copics to colour in shades of grey- it looked a bit dull so I gave her a bright yellow bow. Papers are from my scrap box- so many to use up! I've added a stamped sentiment a die cut bow and tiny diecut buttons.I finished the back of card to match.


Please do hop on over to Crafty Calendar where you can enjoy the beautiful cards my teamies have made- there's still plenty of time to join in  so I hope you'll be inspired to do so! 

PS I'm happy to say that Marvin has made a good recovery and found his wag again! 
Thanks to those who asked after him- he sends you a great big sloppy labrador kiss!(Hope you have a tissue- or a towel- handy)

Thanks for visiting
Chris

Absolutely fabulous card Chris - just stunning! Love the pop of colour on the monochrome design and your card shape is, as always, so wonderful!

Reading back through your last couple of posts, sounds like you had a good holiday - other than poor Marvin's tail and glad to hear it's sorted itself out). We are off at the end of August for a week - first holiday in 3 years - and am so looking forward to it!

Love the bottle holder as well - that image is just soooo brilliant!!

Chris, that card design is SO cool! LOVE the black and white theme with the pops of yellow. The little buttons are gorgeous and her yellow hair bow is perfect! Reminds me of those black and white photos with pops of red. So classy and gorgeous, amazing job on the monochrome colouring too, I LOVE that look! Hugs, Wends xoxo
