Time to Get Funky

This month over at Funky Hand, it's the boss's turn to set the challenge. Anice chose this sketch by Kathy who has a great sketch blog - pop it in your favourites as you'll get a lot of inspiration over there

and here is my interpretation of the sketch. I used papers from the Colour Me Happy CD. I love using sketches, when I am having a 'dry spell' and inspiration goes awol, I can turn to a sketch and it kick starts my creativity again

Look at the latest modelling shoot of little Monty (he is the one in the top right of the photo), this was taken from the Alex and Alexa catalogue. I must admit I have never heard of this company, have you seen the price of the outfits the children are wearing? Good grief. For US friends, Monty is wearing clothes that would set you back $500. Who buys this stuff? Are there babies out there who never do what comes naturally to ordinary, less expensive babies? Can you imagine easing your child gently into his cashmere outfit, made from the finest yarn, hand plucked from animals found only in a remote area of the Himalayas, and trekked for ten days and nights by pack mules to be spun into the softest wool imaginable.................then before you leave the house with your trophy baby, he hiccups, and brings up half of his breakfast.
Monty does looks cute though, I hope he enjoyed his taste of luxury!
