Pootler challenge

Happy Saturday everyone!

On Thursday my upline from Stampin’ Up! set all us Pootlers (our team name!) a challenge – make something using only the two colours nearest to you….. of course I had to participate in this, who doesn’t love challenging their craft abilities?! I was extremely excited when I got home and went to pick my colours from the top of my Stampin’ Write Markers….until I picked them and picked two masculine colours, one of which I rarely use….now there’s a challenge and there’s a challenge….!!

Two days it took me to try and think of something to make, I eventually decided to just sit down and see where my inspiration took me.  Here’s the result:

I wasn’t sure about the finished article, but then I always struggle with male inspired crafts, what do you all think? Would you be happy to receive this, or give to a loved one?

Thanks for stopping by!
