Happy Birthday Jack

Hi again i'm back with this weeks 

Papertake Weekly Challenge

We have a fabulous sketch from our very talented 

Dawny P to follow and this week

we are sponsored by

Simon Says Stamp.

A bit of a different card for me this week

It's my sons birthday end of this week

and gosh he's 14.

He loves graffiti art and he is always

doodling his name in tag form.

So i decided to add some 

graffiti style letters on his card.

I looked through images on the Internet and 

came across this style, printed off the 

alphabet then with a light box traced it onto 

super smooth card  ready to colour with my

Polychromos pencils.

I noticed a lot of the art is multicoloured

and i love Red, Orange and Yellow together

and they are suitable for a guy.

I turned the sketch upside down i thought it 

would work better for me that way

The papers are from Raspberry Road.

The stamp is from a retro transport 

stamp set from Kanban crafts.

The buttons were all a pale yellow so i

coloured them with permanent marker pens

to make them match, and added contrasting wool.

I think i'm safe showing it to you all before he 

sees it he never looks on my page 

"It's all about cards, it's boring"

is what he said the one and only time he looked.

If it's got nothing to do with XBox,

BMX, skateboarding or camper vans

he's not interested.

Thanks for looking 

Take care
