Do what makes you happy...

Oldies But Goodies!.... for some that means cooking, for others it means eating (that's me), and Chef Pierre - test is a great choice for both groups.
Chef Pierre comes in many different versions, you can find them all in the Bugaboo store.

This image required very little coloring, just a bit of color added to the veggies, his skin, his scarf and the saucepan and that's about it. The sentiment is from a set from Marianne. I used a scrap piece of a paper which makes me think of a table napkin, added to a die cut border using a die from Dienamic, mounted with foam. A spotted DP and 3 black enamel dots and voilà.

This post is scheduled, but things will get back to normal in a few days and I'm probably looking forward to that now:)
