Dinomite

Morning lovely peeps, I hope you are all well.

Today's post is my second as Guest Designer for Pink Gem. The challenge this fortnight is
'Spots and or Stripes'

The prize as always is 
2 Individual Digi images
(NO SETS, PERSONALIZED WATERMARKS OR SENTIMENT SETS)
of the winners choice from PINKGEM DESIGNS


This little fella is Dino Dinosaur.
Isn't he cute? I've coloured him in with Graph'It markers


The 'dinomite' die-cut was created with my Craft Robo - I typed the letters using Caslon Oldface font and welded them together with the software before cutting it out from black card. I've hand-drawn little spirals in place of the dots over the i's to match Dino's nostrils :D


I've also used:-
 'hope your birthday' sentiment from Lili of the Valley
background papers from Nitwit
buttons from my stash.

I would like to enter this in the following challenges:- 
Pile It On  #89 123 (1 image, 2 papers, 3 buttons) 
Cardz4guys #91 Button It!
Crafty Sentiments Designs - Anything Goes
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes
Fan-Tastic Tuesday - #106 anything goes with a twist ... use two patterned papers
Die Cuttin' Diva - October Sketch (diecut dinomite)
 Polka Doodles - Use a Die Cut
Crafting by designs - Anything Goes

Digi Choosday - Use Something New (new digi stamp)
Going Grey - Birthday
Simply Papercrafts #15 Anything Goes
Lil Patch of Crafty Friends - #19 Anything Goes
 Little Miss Muffet - #122 - Anything Goes

As you like it - Monochrome or Colour (& why) - I love colour , whether it's bright or subtle. I can spend ages picking out just the right combination for a project.

You have a fantastic eye for picking out fab colour combos and adding the perfect little finishing touches...the buttons are brilliant!
A super cute design too, and a wonderful idea to customise the 'i' letters to match the nostrils :-)

Hi Georgiana, I thought I had followed the sketch but I just checked it again and realised the main part in the middle should be a die-cut. So sorry x
