BUGABOO STAMPS SPONSORS THE 'COME AND GET IT' CHALLENGE

Bugaboo is sponsoring the current 'Come and Get it' Challenge and this time it's a colour challenge:

 

This is the card I made for your inspiration :

My card features the Bugaboo image called "Zebra".  I coloured  using alcohol markers and added buttons in the colour of the zebra. The buttons are from my granny's button box (I have a cake tin FULL of odd, old and fabulous buttons.  The raffia is from a skein I bought many years ago (gee whizz - that stuff lasts forever!). The bead embellishment is made from traditional Zulu beads that are real seed pods (those beads are from a bead chandelier that I bought at a car boot sale years ago especially to salvage and recycle those fabulous beads!)

I think this is a great masculine card, one that any boy/man would love.  There are no fussy flowers, ribbons or frills, and words of love or soppy sentiment in the greeting.

For further interest :  The background of the photograph features a DP that has a Shwe Shwe print (pronounced shwear shwear), a fabric that is now very popular for all ethnic groups in South Africa.

Anyhow, back to the challenge - just be entering you could win fabulous Bugaboo images - click here to link to the Come and Get it challenge blog.
