It's that Beady Time of Year

Spring is in the air and it's time to think of FOOTBALL (lol). Ok, that might be August but it is time for me to think of color combos that represent my favorite football teams. Can you name the teams?

Upper left is the Chicago Bears (Da Bears Rule) there is actually a navy blue in there but the flash does nto show it well, Lower left is the Arizona Cardinals (they are in the University of Phoenix stadium-my college days), lower right is the McGill Tigers (grade School-lol) and the top right is the Minnesota Vikings (not a fan but love the colors).

Below you can see what the Cardinal's colors look like in a pen. Being a St Patrick's Day baby I of course LOVE anything GREEN!!! (below)


These are so fun and easy to do. If you want to learn how to make these
refillable and very personalized pens go to Pennywise Arts.
