Here's to you!

Mornin' hens and Happy TGIBF! Yep, it's Friday alright and not just any Friday mind you, it's Bellarific Friday! And that means it's time for da Bella Babes to reveal our projects from last week's challenge. You remember last week's challenge right? Of course you do, but for those of you who are new to the hen house, last week's challenge was to "Ink what you haven't used!" Sadly enough, I had several to choose from..... but decided on "Beer Peep" from Stamping Bella. I stamped him onto some of Bella's Bestest Paper and colored him with my Copics. I stitched him to some SU Early Expresso that I had punched with my EKSuccess border punch and sponged a little distress ink around the edges too.

Now you remember me telling you on Tuesday that this week was challenge week right? Well, I decided to include a personal challenge too! My challenge was to use OLD products/tools that haven't seen the light of day in like FOREVER and believe me, I have a LOT of those! But it was a good challenge for me and actually, it's been kinda fun! I think I might just keep this up for awhile. I'm sure my DH would like that! Tee-hee! So, for today's card, the OLD product I used was CHIPBOARD. Ok, that may not seem like a stretch for you but it sure was for me. I can't tell you the last time I covered and distressed a piece of chipboard. It was fun and I like the look if it on this card. Oh and as you've probably already guessed, this card is for a guy so NO BOW! Pffft! Buncha-hooeeee as far as I'm concerned, but WHATEVER!

Ok, and last but not least, my REAL challenge this week is this sketch from the "Unscripted Sketches 94" challenge.

Cool huh? I really like this one. Made the OLD chicken think, "how in tarnations am I gonna make this sketch work with this BIG ol' image?" But by golly, I think it works! Whatcha think? Yay! Wanna see some more FABBY cards with this week's BF challenge? Ok, just hop on over to Bloggabella and you can feast your eyes on the UH-MAZING work from the rest of the Bella Babes and the sistahood too!
