So the hubby and I have been joining creative forces and coming up with some T-shirt designs (more on that at a later date) and I had a lightbulb moment with one of the block designs, deciding to turn it into a cutting file for my Cameo! I've been exploring the wonderful world of Silhouette Cameo quite a bit recently and after watching lots of the very helpful tutorial videos, I came up with this.........
The background was done using Faber Castell Gelatos, which were feeling lost and abandoned at the bottom of a craft drawer! I smooshed them around with some water and my fingers - very technical!. The image was cut on plain black cardstock after I simplified some of fiddly bits - still not sure about the hibiscus flower on his shorts................
I would like to enter this into the challenges at Tammy's Scrappin corner , The Crazy Challenge , Bearly Mine , Can You Digi It , Oldie but a Goodie and Through the Craftroom Door .
Thanks so much for popping in - I'd love to know what you think of this design :)
