I was originally going to go monochromatic for this card but decided it would look better (to me anyways) with a pop of colour, and it's not often I use orange.
The image is coloured with promarkers, then I used a white gel pen and a pencil to create the scratches on the balloon.
The paw prints around the edge of the base card were stamped using an inchie stamp from a company called Tanda Stamps - unfortunately, they aren't in business anymore. I deliberately stamped the prints lightly, I didn't want solid paw prints.
I did however, want to add silver brads to the corners, but I don't have any silver ones in my stash anymore - something i'll have to rectify ;) - so I used gold ones instead.
I'd like to enter this card at:
Allsorts Challenge - use brads
