Morning Peeps.
On Sunday morning Very Understanding Hubby and Sweet Cheeks disappeared to the park for the morning. So after the washing, dust and washing up also disappeared, (along with a rather juicy jam tart!) I took myself into the Bat Cave to recharge my FairyDust. I was feeling a little flat and deflated after PinkChristmasGate so I'm really pleased with how this card has turned out. I think it might be what I was trying to do with PCGC.
Anyways, this little guy is Monster Boy and is my all time favourite image from Squiggles and Giggles. I've seen a couple of cards around recently, where the image is pretty much the height of the card. While I've not gone that big, he is much bigger than I would normally work too (about 10cm high) and I really enjoyed the challenge of colouring a bigger area.

Don't tell Sweet Cheeks, but I pinched some of the googly eyes from his sticker collection, (he thinks it's hilarious to stick googly eyes on the remote control, or remoter conktroller as he calls it.) as a little finishing touch. He was out rolling in sand, so I didn't think he'd mind.

How gorgeous is this sweet image with the wiggly eyes - that's so fab Fluff! Your coloring is awesome, you know - lovely blending there. Wonderful papers. I love looking at your cards as they look to be right out of the Hallmark store. Beautiful!
I had a good break, but missed the crafting,snuck a couple of mags in the bag and caught a few rays the first week and mentally spent more than a few pounds. Second week found some crafting shops and the rest is history. Ate too much ice cream, played footy with the kids and made sandcastles, oh and spent a long hot journey (3times) in the car. thanks for asking (but bet you wish you hadn't now (smiles))Heidi x
That is such a cute image, Faye
This is so cute! I love that image and the colors & papers are fabulous. Beautifully colored too.
Awesome card my lovely:-)! The image is fantastic and I love your colours and colouring! I love the design too and the googly eyes look fab! Wonderful card! BIG hugs Delphine xx
PS: I was looking at your fishes, and for a second I thought some were dead!!! But no, they are all here:-)
Love the green and orange and the stars you used, great touch! And the googly eyes are the perfect whimsical touch. Now I have to go and see what the pink christmas gate card thingy is, I'm really behind on commenting!
This is top-notch, fabulous! Love that adorable little guy! Sorry I haven't been visiting much as we are getting ready for a little vaca - may be mia for a bit. C you later, gator or is he a dino? LOVE the google eyes, how could you resist....
