September seems to be filled with birthday boys, for me -
so I have been scouring the digi stamp stores for some cute fellas.
I came across 'Noah' at Sassy Cheryl's.
Isn't he adorable - look at those squeezable cheeks!
I didn't think my colouring skills were up to the pumpkin,
so I flood filled it with a digi paper before printing it out.
(Those eagle eyed amongst you will spot that my printer had a hissy fit mid print,
and the right side came out a bit faded).
Noah is coloured with Copics and the leaves are scattered with Diamond Dust.
Mistake no. 2 - after I had stuck down the little sentiment banner,
I decided to use my orange Copic to draw some vertical lines on the far left.
Urghhhh.... what a mess I made!
Luckily, I found a little scrap of orange, stripey paper to cover it all up ;-)

WOW! Caroline this card is adorable! The colours look fab.
Love that image too - very cute.
I'm all for covering up my mistakes as well and it sounds like you are your own self critic- like me.
I am thinking of changing from ProMarkers to Copics and have been asking people their opinions. Have you also tried distress markers?

I love the sparkles on the leaves, gives a magical touch to the cute scene.
