Celebrate the News!

My teammates at Everybody Art Challenge are on summer vacation so I have carte blanche to play with my images from Mo’s Digital Pencil.  Today I have chosen to enter some birthday and celebration challenges with this cute guy from Mo's who is called "Stocks Up"  You can find him in her store HERE.  Mo, being an equal opportunities artist, also has a girl version of this image available HERE.

My internet is playing up a storm as I type this.  I was unable to get into Blogger at all in Chrome and I had to use a different browser altogether so just in case I lose my connection again, I'm going to head straight into my card and the challenges I am entering.   Information about Mo Manning's Facebook page, Dream Team and Patreon Page can be found in nearly all of my recent blog posts.  


This little guy is coloured with Copic markers and I used a variety of stencils in the background.  I was trying for a blues and teals theme but the green somehow sneaked in.  I love this colour combo.    I am really enjoying adding stencils to my projects and also a little texture with embossing folders.   Today I have used a 3D embossing folder on some of my added embellishments.  The sentiment is Word Processed

I am entering my card into the following challenges:
 
Can you Handle the Pressure July - Anything Goes with a twist of checks or stripes
CD Sunday Plus - #137 Always Anything Digital Goes
Creative Inspirations - July - Anything Goes
Make my Monday -#230 - Let's Celebrate (and they have a DT call)

Passion for Markers -#747 - Favourite Colours 

Polkadoodles #28 - Always Anything Goes

Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers #252 L is for Lindsey whose presence in this life shall always be missed.    I simply opted for a fun snarky comment which I'm sure she would have liked 

Stencil Fun Challenge -  July - Shades of Blue



Edited to publish my Special Mention Badge for my card from the lovely team at Make my Monday, together with a Princess of Snark Badge from the Sisterhood AND a win at CD Sunday Plus too!  Wow!    Thank you ladies.  I'm thrilled!

I love this. Those glasses are 'something else'. I think that is the right expression.
