Theme at I ♥ Promarkers - CAS (Clean & Simple)
Prize Sponsor this week - Joanna Sheen
Now, CAS is not my natural stomping ground - 'less might be more', but how much is 'less' before it becomes 'is that all?' LOL. So here is my take on our minimalist theme this week. I chose this Digi Doodle image, paper-pieced his chef's trousers and coloured him, what colour there is, with Promarkers -with the exception of the flame which I thought it prudent to use fineliners for. (I made this before the new tiny nibs came out for Promarkers so watch this space as to how I get on with them). The sentiment on the front is one from Paulette at TLC and other than mounting it onto black shiny card & then the base card, that is that! LOL.
Well, not quite of course, as I continued the chef-y, minimalist idea onto the inside, creating the sentiment on the PC, adding an image from Arthur's Clipart and cutting it out with a Nestie, doing the 'fake-Nestie' thing to cut the finer border around it in orange to match the cooking pot and mounting it all on a rectangle of more black card. Hopefully, it now looks like the Menu board outside a pub or somewhere.
Short but sweet sentiment on the Chef theme |

I think it's perfect, Tine! Its all about the images anyway. :-)The blackboard menu on the inside is great too.
ReplyDeleteActually I might try one of these CAS cards as I thought I had an anniversary card in my stash and so wasn't worried about making one for my parents and now Ive found out that I DON'T have one and their anniversary is on Friday. Yikes!
Somehow I don't think my "when life gives you lemons" card will work for this occasion! lol
Great creation, love the image!
