THE SIDESHOW - by Fran Chalmers

Hello everyone!

Today I have made a card using the lovely Banksy bear on a unicycle! Here's how I made it....

 First of all I made a background by smooshing distress inks in Kitsch Flamingo, Mustard Seed and Picked Raspberry, drying between layers.

I then added background stamps in different colour inks (see below) to add a bit of texture.

I stamped the bear onto thick paper and coloured with copic pens.  I fussy cut it out and edged it with a black marker.

After placing the bear, I edged the mat with Spiced Marmalade distress ink, and coloured the bunting and the inside of the chevrons.  I stamped the sentiment in black straight onto the mat.

I glued the mat onto a white card to finish off.
