Alcohol Markers Challenge - The Outlawz

Good morning!  Happy Friday!  Another weekend is nearly upon us!  What happened to this week?  It went by in a blur for me.  I still have lots to do, but I am here now to share my DT card for this week's Alcohol Markers Challenge at The Outlawz. The theme this time is "animals" in honor of World Animal Day today.  We'd like to see an animal on your creation and don't forget, you must have some coloring with alcohol markers (any brand) on your project.

Here is my card:


My card base and mats are a dark slate color from Archivers. The patterned papers are from the My Mind's Eye Miss Caroline Dilly Dally 6x6 pad.  The adorable image is Best of Friends Boy from Crissy Armstrong for Whimsy Stamps.  I was lucky enough to have won this stamp during one of the release blog hops.  I stamped it on MiC Blending Card and colored it with my Copics.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  I finished my card with a bunch of yummy embellishments for a shabby chic sort of look: lace, Baker's Twine, a button, chipboard corners from MiC and a few Wild Orchid Crafts flowers.

Here is a close-up of the colored image:


Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to visit the Alcohol Markers Challenge and check out the gorgeous animal-inspired cards from the rest of my DT sistahs!  We hope you will play along!  They are always lots of awesome prizes up for grabs when you enter the challenges at The Outlawz!

I am entering my card in the following challenges:
Whimsy Stamps Challenge #64 (vintage/shabby chic)
Paper Crafting Journey (for a boy)
Through The Craftroom Door Challenge (anything goes)

Have a wonderful day and see you tomorrow for  Little Miss Muffet's Super Saturday post!
