PIXIE COTTAGE CHALLENGE

Today we are looking for use of the sketch and/or Patriotic colors on your Pixie Cottage creation.My wonderful son in law is a helicopter pilot in the US Army so I combined the patriotic colors for his Fathers Day Card. I found the perfect papers I needed all from my scrap box. My fun image is Grillman one of the new digi Pixie Cottage Man images by CreaSeans that has been watercolored. My son in law and daughter are always having some of his flying buddies and families over for Bar B Ques so I thought this card would be perfect for him. I used both real and faux stitching.The image and sentiments are all pop dotted up over one another for some dimension.The ribbon was gathered and then attached to the card.This card also fits these challenges:
Stamp Something: Happy somethings
Crafty Cardmakes: Cards for men
Creatalicious: Stitching/ or sketch
Paper Playtime:Red, white & blue
Daring Cardmakers: The World is your oyster
Crafty Ann's: Fly the flag
Wee Memories: IN stitches
Aly's Sunday: Add sewing
Just us Girls: Use Digital
Charisma Cardz: Stripes and spots
CCEE Stampers: Fathers Day or male
The Crazy Challenge: You are the star
Stamptacular Sunday: A tribute to fathers
A Crafty Little Place: One for the boys
My Partner in Crafting Crime: Show papa some love
