Crafting with Cotnob: Football Nut

It's time for a new challenge at Crafting for all Seasons and we have a Bingo Board for you this week. I have made a card using a brilliant image called 'Nuts about Sports - soccer' from Bugaboo our sponsor for this challenge.

I have coloured my image with a combination of FlexMarkers and ProMarkers and then masked it to create the cloud background, the card stock is Core'dinations and the papers are Echo Park. The sentiment that accompanies the image said soccer, so I computer generated one, the star button and twine are from my stash. I die cut the edge of the green card stock with my Ric Rac border die.

This is the Bingo Board, I used Buttons, Digi Image, Ribbon/Twine.

Our sponsor this week is Bugaboo

and the prize is 7 digital images

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Aud Sentiments Challenge 85 - Two Words
ABC Challenge - Q for Quite A Few
Totally Papercrafts Challenge 174 - Let's hear it for the Boys
A Gem of a Challenge 87 - Lots of Layers

My Time to Craft Challenge 228 - Masking (I masked the image in order to ink the cloudy sky)
