Roooooaaaarrrrrrr ...... with love

Hello and welcome to tonight's blog post.  I'm thrilled because I just found out that I won a prize over at Tiddly Inks ..... yippeeeeeee!  I have been busy creating cards the last few nights ... but can't show you yet ... they are for Design Teams .... so you will have to wait :)

I have a real mean cat to show you tonight .... well actually he is totally gorgeous and you may just want to pick him up and cuddle him.

I have used the totally cuddly lion from Meljens.  I had two attempts at colouring this little cutie but the first one just didn't seem right.......

I coloured this first image in E93, 95 & 97 and his mane in E08 ... but he just turned out to orange (perhaps he was a white lion and he used fake tan!).

This image I used E11, E13 & E15 for his face and body and for the mane and tail I used Y21 with small flicks of YR23 and then YR38 before going back over it with Y21.  On his cheeks and nose I used R00 & R02.

I wanted quite a masculine feel to this card so the rest of the card is rather plain.  An oval using a die and some circles using some punches with some little stamps from my stash.  Sorry I'm not sure what brand they are ...
I stamped everything in Chestnut Roan Colourbox Fluid Chalk Ink and then ran the same ink pad around the edges of everything to tie it all in.

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:-
Meljen's #77 Sketch
365 Cards - Day  206 Love, Masculine Style
Hanna And Friends - #112 Anything Goes
Simon Says Stamp Challenge - Dies to Die For
Truly Scrumptious - #66 Clean and Simple 

Thanks for stopping by :)  I hope you are having fun creating and/or checking out what others have done.

Goodnight  .....xoxoxox
