PWCO challenge focus

For the month of July at PWCO i get to do the challenge focus.  This is actually a great one for me because i always want to do some of the challenges i see out there in blogland, but never find the time (like i said in a prior post...i'm a procrastinator!)

so i decide to do challenge #57 at the Color Chef (see all the details heregreen-brown-white

a few notes: i used a toothpick for my flag post and i cut out a cloud shape and sponged some blue around it to create my sky.  Of course i'm one that tends to glue as i go and i thought of adding clouds after everything was done so it was a bit more tricky, i had to make sure i didn't sponge blue ink on Zach or my flag.  i also used some smooch on this inside of the cloud to add a little something to it.  you can see it better on the close-up shot:
what's in it?

cs: bazzill

pp: Jillibean soup

stamp: PWCO-Zach & Zoe - Zach the golfer

ink: memento, copic (0, C1, E00, E02, E31, E77, Y28, YG00, YG03, BG93), distress (broken china)

other: doodlebug frills, fiskars border punch, cuttlebug swiss dots embossing folder, sponge, smooch (illuminate)

oh yeah! and his hat is not paper-pieced; it's colored with copics :)

thanks for stopping by,
Bella
