Hello Everyone,
Here is a card I have created today for my Grandad's birthday at the end of the month, To create the layout off the card I have used the I love Promarkers Challenge Blog Sketch my grandad used to cross stitch country cottages and cottages in little scenes, so when I seen this image I just knew it would be perfect for him.
The card is created using a cream a4 card blank, folded to create a A5 size. The top and bottom banners are cream card that has been distressed using Tim Holtz Distress Ink Brushed Corduroy, the topper of the card is the stamped image using Messy Rabbits cottage from Joanna Sheen, i have mounted this onto dark brown card with a texture on, and then matted this onto cream card that has again been distressed using the same distress ink as the other pieces. The wording "Happy Birthday Grandad" has been cut using my Cricut Create machine and the Martha Stewart Elegant Cake Art Cartridge, using the same coloured card as the base card. The topper has been coloured in using pro marker pens and the card has been finished with embellishments I got from a scrapbook kit that I bought many moons ago, I simply popped out the centre of the circles, used the "polo" type circle at the top off the card and the centre off the circles just to the side off the topper.
