A Guy Named BORIS + Win a Dog Drinking Lemonade

Hello.  Welcome.  A couple of weeks ago I was over at Claudine's blog looking at her altered puzzle pieces and I started a couple of my altered playing card backgrounds based on this post.  Then they got lost on my desk.  Today Claudine posted two more puzzle pieces HERE and I was inspired to dig out my part finished cards and get them finished.  

I started by painting this one with black acrylic and stenciling in white acrylic through Stamplorations Flutterby stencil.  Then I filled the wings with iridescent glitter glue.  Yummy

I doodled around the edge with my white gellyroll pen and stamped and embossed the celebrate sentiment from Stamplorations Celebrate Artsy set.  

For my second card I stained the gessso with distress Frayed Burlap.  I die cut patterned paper with a sizzix die and added it to my card.  

This was another thing I started a while ago and couldn't work it out.  I made these eyes using Stamplorations Celebrate Artsy and Retro Mod shapes sets and various embosssing powders.  

I couldn't find a puzzle piece the right size so I cut my own, painted it yellow and added some wool as mad hair.  The overalls are painters tape with some gelly roll doodles.  I added a 'B' to his overalls cos he looks like a .......   Well, I haven't decided, but definately somebloke with the initial B.  Maybe you can help me??

So, my two cards.  Only 2 more and the jokers and my pack will be complete.  Hurrah

Now, on to the problem of a name.  Leave a comment with your best suggestion of blokes name beginning with B and I will pick my favourite.  I have already discounted Bob, so forget that.  Also, I will be picking my favourite so please check no-one has already suggested your choice.  As a thank you for playing along I will send my favourite pick a unmounted rubber stamp from VLVS.  I have a double of this one and the small umbrella from the same plate.      I chose BORIS.  Thanks for playing along ladies.
