Good Afternoon Everyone, 

Thought I would hop in and share with you a card I made for my Father In Law's Birthday. 

The card is an 8x8 card, matted and layered. The image is a stamp from Lili of the Valley, and is coloured with Graph It Markers, and Promarkers. 

Around the image I used Fran-tage to give extra detail. 

The sentiment was stamped and embossed using a bronze/gold embossing powder. 

I finished the card with a button, some twine and fake stitching.

I am entering this into the following challenges.

Golfer Day

Good Morning 

How are we all today, 

It has been a week of celebrations in our family, my grandad and I celebrate our birthdays one after the other, his was Tuesday and mine was Wednesday.

I always find it hard to make Male cards, but I do find them a little easier with the help of the Lili of the Valley Stamps. 

I stamped this image and coloured him in using my promarker pens. 

The card is a standard A4 card blank folded in half to create an A5 Card. 

I used different papers and mat and layered these. 

To finish the card I added a sentiment that I stamped, a handmade little flag, and card candi. 

I hope you like it.

Birthday Wishes

Good Morning Everyone, 

How are we all today?

Well today is the start of a new challenge over at Eclectic Ellapu, some of you will know we changed to an every three week challenge blog, but with two themes, you can enter both the pink team theme and the purple team theme, providing your card/project/layout/craft matches the theme, we would love to see it. 

Normally I am part of the Pink Team, but I am jumping on board the purple team this week and hosting their challenge of "Birthday" I picked the theme Birthday for this challenge as in the next week we will be celebrating, three birthdays in my family.

Anyway on to the card

The card is an standard A5 card (a4 folded in half) I haven't done this size/shape for a while, I have been sticking to the 8x8 so thought I would do something slightly different. 

The colour theme is brown and white, originally it was going to be brown and aqua,but I changed my mind last minute. 

The image is from Lili of the Valley and I have used my graph it markers to colour him in.  I embossed the brown layer added a white flag, white ribbon and bow, stamped and coloured a sentiment in, added card candi and white liquid pearls around the image.

The challenges I am entering this into are:-

613 Avenue Create - #69 Anything Goes - 04/05

Addicted to Stamps - Things With Wings - 10/05

2 Sisters Challenge - #175 Teddy Bears - 01/05
