DT Quixotic Paperie - Argus with Teddy

Hi everyone! This is my second post of the day, if you're looking for the Waltzingmouse Stamps SOAP then keep scrolling down or just click HERE.

I made this card for my Quixotic Paperie DT post on the store blog. I used super cute Argus with Teddy by Paper Makeup Stamps and he's been coloured with copic markers - YG21, 23, 25. R07, 09. W1, 3, 5 and the teddy has been coloured using R15, 17, 19. I also used the sketch on the Paper Makeup Stamps blog so I am entering this into their challenge.

My papers are Old School from Pink Paislee and they are all machine stitched. This paper pack has some wonderful 'boy' colours and there is also a 15% discount on these papers right now over on the Quixotic Store so it's a perfect time to stock up!!

I cut my image out using circle nestabilities, adhered it onto a scalloped circle of coordinating paper and mounted them onto foam dots for added dimension. The yellow gingham ribbon is from my stash.

Basic Grey Challenges & Quixotic Paperie

Good ~~morning~~ afternoon! It's still pretty dark and dismal here - the kind of weather that zaps your energy and enthusiasm for doing much of anything except snuggling up in front of the fire with the kiddos, watching kiddie movies and drinking hot chocolate- all I need now is a log cabin on a snow-capped mountain and I've got my own little fairytale, lol. We can but dream...

Onto my card for today, which is a double up DT card for Basic Grey Challenges with the theme Hallween/Fall and Quixotic Paperie Inspirations.

This little guy is called Leif Monster and my papers are Basic Grey's Mellow

I coloured my image and shaded the background with copics and used nestabilities to cut out the circle/scalloped circle. The matching sentiment comes with the stamp.

I also used the sketch from the very first Quixotic Paperie sketch challenge when creating my card. Have you entered??? Don't forget - a random winner will receive a £15 prize to use at Quixotic Paperie! You can find the post HERE.
