This is created primarily for Toni's World Sight Day WTUI challenge which you will find HERE.
But when I was making it on Tuesday, I'd looked at the Falliday Fest and seen that the first card drive was for the Ronald McDonald House, Cleveland, and I thought this stamp would be a fun one to use for that. So, I ditched the background I'd originally planned to use and went with a lot of masking and reverse masking for Bev's FF challenge.
Stamped the image on white card, and coloured him with pencils. Enamel Accents on the little buttons - or whatever they are! Masked him, and cut a reverse mask from Eclipse tape with an oval aperture. Sponged in the background to look like a planet and more or less a Northern Lights style sky, with white gel pen dots. Spritzed the "planet". Stamped the sentiment, and used a Masquepen to mask off the part of it not in the oval. Masked off the oval and stamped the background. Removed all masking, edged the panel with black pen and added it to a white base after adding the computer-generated sentiment (font is Travelling Typewriter). To finish, I added the googlie eyes.

Sabrina I love this fantastic image for the WTUI challenge. I love the masking you added to color this in and have it pop against the black and white. Such a super cute card to send to the Ronald McDonald house.
