All Dressed Up Cool Dude

Wow - don't the months fly by at the moment... Its def time for me to be in full flow christmas making season... every year I promise myself I will make Christmas crafts all year around to be ready but it has yet to actually happen!!

So It is time for a new challenge to be launched at All Dressed Up stamps. And here is my DT creation using Cool Dudes. 
There is loads of inspiration over at the blog page and on the facebook group. You can enter the month long challenge with any creation using an All Dressed Up image to win more of the fabulous images by designer Wendy Burns. 

The background scene is from Simple Stories Snow Fun collection and I have created a frame using the different shades of Blue Bazzill card stock. The Ticket is also from Simple Stories. I added my coloured image using 3d foam and then I used some Frantage embossing powder (Which I still don't quite have the hang of!!) to look like snow over the whole piece. I added some wooden snowflakes to keep it more masculine and used some liquid pearls to and some snowy dots. Finally I used some glaze pen on the googles to give them a reflection.

I used these promarkers and flexmarkers to colour the image -
Skin - Usual!
Pants - Cornflower blue, Denim & powder blue
Red, Poppy, Ruby & Cardinal
Top - Lime green, pear green & Marsh green.
Hoody & gloves - Sky blue, Egyptian blue & Indigo blue
Dog - Ice grey 1, 3 & 5.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges -
Ellibells creative Moments - Outdoor scene with a critter/ creature
Dream valley - Winter birthday.
Scrapbook stamp society - Frame it
Sparkle & Sprinkle - Use embossing powder
Allsorts - Feature a creature

I kept my card pretty simple and printed the image out on Kraft card and coloured her using Prismacolor pencils. I added a little purple ribbon and knotted a Butterfly charm onto it. 

I then decided to try Stampendous Frantage... should really have tried this out on a practice first to know what I was doing but no... I dived straight in and ended up blowing most of it away with the heat gun!! Finally I added a wooden word embellishment  to tie everything together. 

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges - 

Ribbon Girl - Any image 

Simply Papercraft - ATG
