The Squirrel and the Fox Challenge #77

Challenge #77
(sorry this went live too early - hopefully it is scheduled OK now|)



For a Male
Our Sponsor is 
who are offering
Prize - 3 Free Digi's from their store


I used die cuts to create the sentiments - the MATE came from individual letters. The image is one supplied by the sponsor for our use - he is cute, I think, eating his slice of water melon.  Although in reality Koala's only eat the leaves of certain gum trees, and rarely even drink water. 


The image was printed onto XPress blending card and coloured in with Copics, and then die cut into a circle. A line of black Copic pen was run around the outside of the circle. 


The whole front of the card is from one embossing folder, and this had been embosssed onto some SU Gumball Green, and then layered onto SU Soft Sky and Calypso Coral card. The latter makes the base card as well. The die cut sentiments are also in the CC card. 

I thought this would be a good card for a 'between' aged boy, say about 9 or 10 - still cute but not too young. 

I will enter this in the following challenges:
crafty cardmakers: dry embossing
card and scrap: anything goes
tokBobok: masculine
