"Cow"abunga dude!

Hi everyone!  I hope your week is going well so far!  Not that I'm counting down the days, but only two more days until the weekend - yay!!!  But onto what we're here for - card sharing!  Today I am the guest designer card for Michelle Perkett Studios....

 


Cool, huh?!!  I love this cutie called Cal the California Surfing Cow although I couldn't decide what colour his surf board should be - to match or contrast?!  So I contrasted and think it's come out pretty good!  I am going to give this card to my dad - he's always reminiscing about how he loved the beach as a kid when he grew up in Hong Kong so thought he'd appreciate this!  I coloured him in with my Copics on watercolour paper - I love the richness of this but it sure does drink the ink!!  You can buy other Michelle Perkett Studios gorgossity in her shop here (not that I'm trying to be an enabler!!).

You can see more of the Design Team cards gorgeous inspirations here.  That's it from me today - see you tomorrow with another preview for Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps!




I am entering this card into the following challenges:

Paper/cardstock: Bazzill cardstock, watercolour paper, My Mind's Eye Lime Twist Fly A Kite (from Quixotic Paperie here)
Stamps: Michelle Perkett Studios Cowabunga Dude
Mediums: Copics
Accents:Doodlebug ribbon

Tools: border punch, Nestabilitie rectangle die
