Believe in Yourself

It's time for another ABC Monday - Anything but a Card at
Catch the Bug

Here's what I created

A Planner Bookmark

(I'm getting quite addicted to my planner - just sayin')

I used the image Unicorn Believe in Yourself

You can get the image HERE in the Bugaboo Shop.

I coloured this image with Copics 

(had to ask my son to remind me of the order of the rainbow colours as I can never remember this)

Matted it in black and added it to some heavy sparkly purple cardstock,

then punched a tab out with my tab-punch, 

and it was done!!

I hope you are inspired by my creation!

Hope to see you play along with one of our challenges!
