Just Because

  Hi Everyone here I am with my DT card for today, it's for the challenge at QKR. Our challenge is on the 1st and 15th of every month, so you have 2 chances every month to enter the challenge.

We will select two winners each of the weeks 
1 using QKR Stampede  or Eureka Stamps image
 and 1 using any image!

Anything Goes every 1st & 15th of the month

My choice for my DT card today is this adorable bear, although he is named as a "Happy Puppy," I think he looks more like a bear! He said to me, "just because" with his cute expression, so that is what I used as a sentiment. I did a print and cut with my digital cutting machine and layered him after colouring with markers. He is the colour he is because of the limited amount of markers I have to shade. The paper was used to match him, layered onto brown card. A few sequins and some glazed eyes and tongue and he was ready to be sent. I had awful difficulty with taking the photo, not even my lightbox wanted to behave with this card. In the end it was laid flat on my desktop and I used the light from the window - on a dull day though. 

coloured with - Spectrum Noir Markers, onto mat photo paper
dp's - Shabby Princess (from 2005!)
sequins - stash
brown card - Dovercraft
glaze - Nuvo Crystal Glaze

Such a sweet little bear - even though he's meant to be a pup! I think it's the ears. And your limited colours were the perfect ones as he's just perfect!

This is super cute, Faith. I love that you were able to print and cut him with you cutting machine. Does that not beat fussy cutting? Love background papers you have used too.
Hugs Monica
