Backing paper just looks like a knitted whatever adhered ribbons adhered to backing, paper, one is a tape measure the other green and cream,cut card with cuttle bug adhered small cream one to same maroon card stamped sentiments with real stamps
I have just realized now with putting the sketch on here that I should of made it landscape but it looks ok to me

Teddy
C&S is not really my thing I always feel something is missing,but I think we have to go out of our comfort zone sometimes and try new things and maybe we might find it fun
Used Maroon base card cut and embossed the corners
Printed the sentiment on the computer
Adhered the teddy to the card
Am putting this on
Less is more ..something that is interesting to touch

Black & White
I like black and white on a card seems to pop out at you
Get creative challenges was Black & White
Also noticed that all the cards posted were for a female
So I decided to do a man's card OMG what was I thinking !!!!
I always struggle with a Man's card but am happy with what I ended up with
Used black and white backing paper adhered to white base card, distress inked the edges,already had the image cut out so as you can see image on white card then onto black cut ovals with the cuttle bug the bottom white is from a chevron die cut in half, the fly and sentiment are stamped

Anti Aging
Used the free stamp , that was provided for the June image challenge,again
this will be a stamp that will be used alot, good for for the grand kids to colour in
I printed out and coloured out the images adhered to white card then added the blue frames that I cut out on the cuttle bug using two sizes printed the sentiment onto the blue card on the computer My lady, whom I just love and have used on more than one occasion, has been de-coupaged with a thin foam tape. I find that it doesn't matter how you take a photo of a De-decoupage image or how carefully you put the De-coupage together it never seems to look good
Am putting this into the I{heart}sketches challenge
