Our theme this week is, as always, Anything Goes & we have an optional twist of Use a Sentiment

Here is my make for this week's challenge, using the very cute Beary Loving

I started off by making a 6"x6" card base from Ivory hammered cardstock. I then cut a gorgeous mat, I cut it from white card as I wasn't sure what colour scheme I was going for, I cut my sentiment & the banner from the same card.

After playing around for a wee while I decided on a monochrome card

The image was coloured in with my promarkers, in various shades of browns

I inked up the sentiment with Vintage Photo distress ink & then used a woodgrain stamp to stamp over it in Walnut Stain

I inked the banner in Vintage photo & again stamped over it with Walnut Stain. My mat was inked with Antique Linen & Vintage Photo, I then stamped the cute music stars on it randomly. 

I used pinflair to stick my image down so I could add some dimension.

So, there you have it, thanks so much for stopping by & I really do appreciate all your lovely comments.

Both the tree & the fence box were cut with my cameo. I assembled them & added touches of glitter.

I coloured the image up using flex & promarkers. I then cut him out & added him to the edge of the box

I cut out some layered egg shapes & added them to the branches, cause we all know easter eggs grow on trees right?? lol
