I backed the easel card with some free paper I got a couple of years ago from a craft magazine. The paper has a distressed effect which I thought fitted. I then downloaded a Graffiti font from the web and typed some words to do with skateboarding which I had to look for on the web as I hadn't a clue! then printed it off on to the backing paper. Joey is coloured with my Pro-Markers cut out and stuck to the card with sticky pads. The skateboard on the bottom of the card was printed from the web then cut out and stuck down with foam pads to give a little height. I then printed a band of SK8R BOY using the same font as before. I finished off by inking around the edge of the card with black ink.
