Sketch Saturday with Bunny Zoe's Crafts

You could win a £10 shopping spree in Nikki's fab store if you're our lucky winner this week.

I was asked to make a card for a man who likes beer.
I instantly thought of this fab 'Beer Monster' from Pollycraft...


I coloured him in with promarkers, I wanted the skin to look more 'monster-like' so once coloured in, I dabbed over the skin areas with the blender pen so that it would take away a little bit of the ink.
The patterned paper is from MME Stella Rose 'Hattie' paper pad. It's double sided, the argyle and spotty patterns being both sides of the same sheet.
The sentiment is from SeeD's, either side of this are 2 teeny tiny buttons, I have had these buttons for years, and only remembered that I had them when I decided that I wanted discreet buttons for this card so that I could join in with Cazza's Pollycraft BINGO challenge this week.
To finish, I got out my star punches again. The large one is a Stampin Up punch, the smaller one is by Clippunch.

Challenges:
Pollycraft - BINGO (Buttons/Pollycraft image/Punches)
PTW - Buttons, Bows, Bling & Blooms
I Love Promarkers - Anything Goes (their 100th challenge!)
Truly Scrumptious - Something Forgotten (my buttons)
Crafty Sentiments - Anything Goes
SOS challenges - create a border (used my star punch)


There's much more inspiration to be found by the other Saturday Girls on our blog, and don't forget, we have a DT call on right now!

Have a fabby weekend xx
