So for all you non Yorkshire readers, the title of this post is, If you want something doing then do it for yourself! A perfect thought for the new challenge over at Cardz4Guyz which is -
DIY
I did a dialect quiz on Yorkshire day to see if they could guess which bit of Yorkshire I come from, the result said West Yorkshire, probably because I lived there longer than my birth county of South Yorkshire! Still it was only a bit of fun.
This fun digi from LOTV was perfect for the latest challenge at Cardz4Guyz and probably also for my OH's birthday in a couple of months!
He has a man cave attached to the house which on a good day looks very like this image. I'll leave you to imagine what it's like on a bad one!
Having printed the DIYer out, I coloured it using Copics, before using an MFT scalloped edge die along the bottom edge.
A panel of DP from the bits box was placed under the illustrated panel and the sentiment from Uniko added. The edged panel was then added permanently with a panel of fun foam to raise it up. I left a border around my 5" x 7" base card but I'm not sure whether I should have taken the design to the edge, still too late now!
Although the colouring took quite a while, the design is quite simple.
There's even more inspiration over on the Cardz4Guyz blog, so why not check it out.

Yay...I translated it correctly, I knew I was multi-lingual!! Lovely card Julie, sweet image and the design is fabulous, I have had those edge dies in my basket so many times in the past..it's probably time to do something about it!! Rain, rain and more rain here, the fields are looking all the better for it though. We are off to a show tomorrow so hope we get a little window of dry weather at least x
