THE WORLD IS OUR OYSTER


This week at 2 Sisters Challenge we are being sponsored by Stitchy Bear Stamps and Pizzazz Aplenty.
The challenge is to use pearls in your design.  I started with this amazing chef digi from Stitchy Bear.  He reminds me of a chef I have loved for most of my adult life (shhhhhhh, don't tell my husband).  I colored him with Copic markers and added dimension to the hat, heart and spatula.  Unfortunately, I still can't take a good picture so you can't tell.  I cut the mat behind him out with a nestie.  I dug into my "box o'scraps" for the background paper.  The other paper is just generic from Archiver's.

For the pearl portion of the challenge I used some small chocolate pearls I got from Pizzazz Aplenty in all four corners.  I also added a chocolate pearl brad in the middle of the bow.  I never plan my sentiments ahead of time but that is something on plan on doing in the future.  As you can see, my sentiment is partially covered by my chef's mat.

I did not have extra time to research challenges so I haven't entered this little guy in any this week.  I think that is something I need to work on in the future as well. 

Please stop by 2 Sisters and check out what the rest of the design team has
 created and thanks for stopping by.
