My Card for Incy Wincy Designs Challenge #40

Welcome to a very windy Bank Holiday Monday here in the UK. I hope you are all enjoying your long weekend here. Today I have got my 1st card for Incy Wincy Designs. If you are not familiar with Incy Wincy Designs all the proceeds from their sales go to the Aspire to Thrive Children's Charities in Australia.
This week's challenge is Anything Goes & we are being sponsored by Squigglefly. The DT were all lucky enough to be presented with images to use on their cards.

I have one of Heidi's sketches from a previous challenge at MAWTT.

I coloured the image using mainly Promarkers. I have to admit that I did struggle colouring in this image as it is not my usual style but I got there. Here is a closer look

I wanted to try & keep the bee looking fluffy although I have to admit I think it still looks a bit like a fly lol!!!

Well I am off to sort my little boy out today as its his birthday & I have my last stroppy teenager lol!!! Hopefully I will get through the day & be able to visit your wonderful creations. xx Clare x
