Here is this week's Sketch and my creation:
My card for your inspiration is made on a theme close to my heart - AFRICA!
I showcase a Priscillastyles image, the cutey ol' lion, and coloured him using copics and the detailing with a white gel pen. He was fussy cut out from the background and matted onto Africa-inspired scrapbooking paper from the Clifton Collection, Made in South Africa, called "Zebra 0059". The Zebra striped black and kraft striped card is from another South Africa company called Merry Pak. The beading is hand done, using a needle and thread and genuine Zulu beads. I added a bow made of raffia and some guinea fowl feathers as embellishments.
Now isn't that a real AFRICAN card?
