Moving Along With The Times 'Decoupage' Challenge

Good morning all, hope your all having a good week. I had a lovely day yesterday for my birthday and thank you all for the birthday wishes.

It's time for a new challenge over at Moving Along With The Times and this week I am the hostess and chose 'Decoupage' as the challenge. You can use either the traditional type or a layered stamp. You need to hop over to the challenge blog to see all the wonderful creations the design team have made. 

For my card I used this adorable little bear called Popcorn, it is quite a large image so went for an A5 sized card. This is another of my never used before stamps and I enjoyed the challenge of colouring such a large area. Because the image is so big I kept it quite simple. I die cut the flag strips on my cameo using a Lori Whitlock file.

Supplies:-
A5 Card Blank - Boyes
Card Stock - Bazzill
Designer Papers - Craft Creations
Flag - Silhouette 6 Banner Set by Lori Whitlock
Gloss - Ranger

Promarkers & Flexmarkers Used:-
Teddy - Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Tan, March Hare & Light Fawn
Blanket - Tan, Ivory & Linen
Balloons - Verdigris, Duck Egg, Oasis, Cool Aqua, Lemon, Soft Lime, Primrose, Sunflower, Mustard, Tulip Yellow, Lilac, Lavender, Soft Mauve & Spring Lilac.
