Creative Fingers Challenges - Beccy's Place

Good morning folks, yippppeeee it's Friday. I hope you all have a fantastic weekend. I'm here this morning with another great challenge from
Creative Fingers Challenge Blog
& this week we are sponsored by
Beccy's Place
You're bound to find something you like over at the store, so do pop by. 
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.
