Design To Color DT post!)
It's Bellarific Friday and this week we had a theme of 'For The Boys' and here is my Bellarific Babe card for it...
Ain't he a darling?! This is Mo Manning's Tolerance stamp for Stamping Bella. And yeah, I've never known a cat that tolerant!! I used papers from the October Afternoon's Roadmap collection and dry embossed some kraft cardstock with a Darice chevron embossing folder.
And guess what I coloured him with? Nope, not my Copics! I always love Sally of Scallywag's pencil colouring so I got out my Prismacolors and had a go! Here's a close up...
I need a bit more practice but I'm quite pleased with the way it turned out - a much more soft and artistic look than my Copics so I'll be doing this again!
Check out the rest of the Bella Babes cards on the blog here. The new Bellarific Friday is the sketch below. Email your creations to Em by next Thursday 21 March for a chance to win $20 Bella Bucks (either by submitting a project or simply commenting on next week's Bellarific Friday post)!
You can also join with our Bellarific Tuesday over at Splitcoaststampers for a chance to win $20 Bella Bucks!
Thanks for visiting and I'll see you later on my blog rounds.

Love your card Mary but if a kid did that with my cat she'd rip him to shreds!
Have a lovely weekend.

Gorgeous card, I really like the colours you've used and you've achieved a lovely textured look with the pencils - is there anything you can't do :)
this is so cute.. I can totally see my nephew trying to hold my dog that way.. too funny...
Beautifully coloured, fun image.
Too funny! That is exactly what it looked like the last time my daughter tried to pick up a cat, uncomfortable for both of them! lol! Great card!
This is so cute Mary J and you did a fabulous job with the pencils!
Awwww I love that image, the look on the cat's face is just brilliant. Fabulous colouring and I love the embossing and papers.

What a cutie Mary! A lovely card for a boy/man. You colored the image wonderfully and I love the DP. Hugs, Hanneke
Oh, you used pencils! Yay!! And it's fabulous too!
Hello dear Mary,
Ohhh what a cute card!!!
I absolutely LOVE it.
I have 2 cat's and i am so sure that if my daughter or me will pick one of them like that we both won't be happy.
And wow you did amazing with the colouring of the image with the pencils.
And how ironic is that sentiment it really looks like the cat is saying that sarcastic.
Well i see it that way so funny.
I also love the red paper with the numbers.
I asume that is design paper??
And the way of placing the sentiment behind the image like that is so clever i have to remember that.
Have a wonderfull weekend
