BUGABOO'S HUMOR ME WEDNESDAY

Did you know that Wednesday, 21 August was Senior Citizen's Day?
 
Over at Bugaboo Stamps' Catch the Bug blog we celebrate a wacky holiday and I really meant to post this monochromatic card on Wednesday, but I have had no internet connection - and yay - I am now back online!
 
 
My card features two merged Bugaboo images called
Make it Snappy - Stella birthday - old fart and Gus Birthday -  Recount
and I used a combination of Copics and Spectrum Noir for the colouring:
 
To make up my card, I used the following from my stash:
 
black CS card base
polka dot DP
black CS card mats
Stickles on the balloons
 
 
luv'n huggz

SOUTH AFRICA

    LOL - I do love Old Fart - she is such a great stamp to have on hand for some of my older friends! I might now need to invest in Gus too! So clever, your merge. Your mono colour scheme is super too. Thanks for sharing this with us at Crafting with Dragonflies for our current challenge of a male card/Fathers Day card.
