Copic/Promarker Challenge - The Outlawz

Good morning!  It's really early for me and I haven't had my coffee yet, so please bear with me if this post is not coherent!  I am here to share my DT card for this week's Copic/Promarker Challenge on The Outlawz site.  This week's theme is "Thanks/Thanksgiving".  My card is also for this week's Mo's DP2 Challenge (#107) which had a theme of "Give Thanks".  Perfect!

Here is my card for both challenges:


 I started with a square card base of SU Blue Bayou and layered with More Mustard and patterned paper from the Basic Grey Pyrus 6x6 pad.  I merged two of Mo's wonderful images called Jingle Dancer and Charity.  They can be found in Mo's store here.  I thought they captured the spirit of the first Thanksgiving (Native Americans and Pilgrims sharing together).  I printed the image on Cryogen White Iridescent and colored with Copic markers.  The image was framed with a Spellbinders Lacey Square.  The sentiment was computer-generated then mounted on a Spellbinders Fancy Tag.  Some dyed seam binding, a button and a few charms finished my card.

Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to visit the Copic/Promarker Challenge on The Outlawz and check out the amazing creations from my DT sisters and our wonderful November Guest Designer, Lorraine! We hope you'll be inspired to play along with us!

Have a fantastic Friday!
