Papertake Challenge - A Sketch!


Here is the card I have made for the challenge at Papertake this week where there is a fantastic sketch to follow! I used my AJ Footie Fan stamp from Dinky Dots and turned him into a Christmas character! When it's freezing cold you will always see someone without a coat and only a scarf to keep warm, maybe it's a teenage thing but I never did it (I'm far too nesh!) I paper pieced him with K & Co papers and added a HOTP sentiment. I'm not sure if the flowers fit but I needed something to go with the sketch.
I hope you all have a lovely day in the sunshine!
Love Becky xx

I love this card, bought a smile to my face the instant I saw it as it reminds me of the teenage lads round here on their way to school in the winter with no coats no mater what the weather is doing! Great colours too. Thanks for making me smile today. xx

Gorgeous card Becky, I love the colour scheme, the orange is so striking against the green and blue. Made me smile reading your post...its so true, I knew a boy when I was at school who'd never wear a coat, scarf, jumper even, he'd walk to school wearing just his t-shirt even in the snow! He was never ill though lol! Jillix
