Fusion #10

Wow, can you believe that we are at Fusion #10 already?!  You know what they say, time flies when your having fun.  I have to say I LOVE being on this team.  The ladies are wonderful, the challenges inspiring and the creations divine.  I feel lucky to be here, thank you Lesley and Fusion Team!

This week's challenge is another breathtaking image and wonderful sketch.  Here it is:

What's the first word that comes to mine when you see the pic and sketch?  I say elegant or maybe wedding. Of course I didn't go that direction this week, I went totally opposite.  For once, I chose to work with only the sketch.  It was a hard choice BUT today is my hubby's birthday and I wanted to dedicate this post to him so....here is what I made.

My hubby is becoming quite the beer brewer.  In fact he is brewing several batches (5) for an upcoming wedding for some friends as our gift to them.  That is him, so kind and generous and he loves to have fun ta-boot.  So this card is the perfect card for him.  

The image is a digi I found at From the Heart Stamps.  They have some super fun stuff over there.  I colored this image with layers upon layers of marker and did my best to make it look like a real beer.  I added a little color to parts of the froth and added glossy accents to make it look wet and yummy (to a beer drinker).  I even went so far as to add some stippiling to make it appear that there were bubbles in the brew. Anyway I hope he likes it and Happy Birthday to you Jeremy!

But... back to the CHALLENGE!  You probably know but you can use the image the sketch or BOTH when playing with the Fusion Challenge.  It is super fun and so amazing to see all the creations that come out of it.  If you haven't been over to the Fusion blog yet- GO!!!  You are gonna wanna see all the DT creations, no question.
