Boy Zone!!

Where did the last month go?  I was going to be so good and get more than one card posted but it somehow took me a month to make this one, lol.  Anyway, this month at Crafts Galore Encore we are asking you to use your favourite colour. We are sponsored by the fabulous Kenny K who are offering 2 prizes of 2 digis, one person will be chosen at random and one will be selected. Check out the website here for the fabulous digis.  

The image I have chosen is called Airborne and was such fun to colour. I have used my favourite colours for this time of year which are yellow and blue but I couldn't make a card without my favourite copic reds, lol, I hope you like it.
I have used Copic Sketch and Ciao pens
Papers are from the Alison Ellis Boy Zone range
(All of the above are available from Wendy at Stamps and Memories)
The skateboard wheels on the BOY ZONE I have made from buttons, beads and Glossy Accents.

I am going to enter this into the following challenges:

Hope you like it , don't forget to pop across the Crafts Galore Enclore and see the other Teamies fantastic creations.  Have lots of cards to make in April so hope to be back before May, lol!!
