Bob The Builder

I am on a day off today. So I have a little time to craft and blog. I was going through some old card designs and I have found many I never posted. This one was for my Grandson Finn when was 2. He love Bob the builder. So I constructed a card using colouring page downloads. He was delighted. 

I used Promarkers & Nesties. The tracks I drew and shaded, I thought it added a bit more interest to the bottom and something for Bob to stand on.
