Australian Surf Life Saving Sand-man Steve is a Digi from Beccy's Place and I have coloured him in the traditional Surf Life Saving colours seen on Aussie beaches, although when the surf clubs have competitions against each other each club also has club colours..

LPoCF#216 LeAnn's World 101

 Hello again,

This week brings us to another all new challenge with my lovely team mates over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, this fortnight we are being sponsored by Leann's World 101 who kindly gave the team two images to work with, I have used Beetle Bug to make a birthday card. I have also delved into an envelope of scrap pieces from Kaisercraft Factory 42 paper pad, adding some die cut cogs from black and gold paper from the scrap box. I tried to add some sparkle to the headlights using my Wink of Stella pen only to discover that it has a huge leak in it and I had to very carefully clean up the spill on one of the headlights, it has slightly blurred the image.... 

Prize 2 images

Here is my card
What I used:
White 12.6x17.8cm (5x7) card blank
Black paper
White Cardstock (printing)
Faber Castell coloured pencils
Kaisercraft Factory 42 paper pad
Sentiment stamp from Magazine
Embossing ink
Black Embossing powder
Cog Die- magazine set
MFT pierced oval die
Adhesives Double sided tape, foam dots, adhesive sheet (for the cogs)

I would like to enter this card in:

I am off to use up some scrap only paper pads, you know, they are too nice to throw away, so all that is left of them is the tiny scraps, I think this may be a good way to use some of them up...

Thank you for looking in...
Have a wonderful week
