BAH HUMBUG - OSAAT challenge #194

It's our last challenge till next year at OSAAT and to finish of the year of 2013..... 

My image this week was.... Bah Humbug.

I wanted to stick to a monochrome colour palette with this image so chose a black/white/grey theme.

I used my new but-getting-a-lot-of-wear-out-of-them watercolour pencils to colour in the image.

I cut round the image using my EK Success Circle Scissor Pro (Love this tool!) And then using two different black and white pattern card, cut out expanding circles to create layers. 

I cut a background piece of white paper, tore and crinkle around the edges and inked it. 
Then layered it on to the same patterned card.

I tied a knot using silver wired mesh ribbon and black satin ribbon together. 

I used my Dymo to emboss the words 'Bah Humbug'.

I loved using this image as it was so different than the cutesy, traditional, father Christmas image you usually see.

All in all, a perfect finish to 2013's OSAAT creations.

Ingredients:
* Watercolour Pencils
* Patterned paper
* Distress Ink - Pumice Stone
* Ribbon
* Dymo embossing machine


This weeks challenge is sponsored by StitchyBear Digi Outlet will run up to 11th January 2014 10pm GMT (that's 5 whole weeks) so you have plenty of time to get cracking with your creations.
