A card at last!

Hi everyone

sorry it's been a while since I blogged a challenge card, I've just not had much spare time lately.

Never mind, here's my challenge entry today:





This is my nephew's birthday card - I'm a bit early as it's not his birthday until July but you know when you get an idea in your head and you just have to run with it?!


The image is a Molly Bloom clear stamp coloured with water colour pencils and the bunting is also a Molly Bloom but coloured with promarkers for a more intense shade. You can't see it very well but I have accented the star on his jumper and a couple of the flags with glossy accents.



I made the digital sentiment myself and found the little star charm in my newly cleared out stash!



I'm entering it into the following challenges:



Digital Tuesday: #111 seeing stars http://digitaltuesdaychallenge.blogspot.com/2011/05/challenge-111-seeing-stars.html


Papertake Weekly: bloom and grow (or Molly Bloom images) http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.com/2011/05/bloom-grow.html


Passion for Promarkers: #100 red, white, blue and a charm http://promarkerchallenge.blogspot.com/2011/05/week-100-theme.html


All for now - byeeee! xxx
