After nearly catching up I'm not quite up to date with blogs again and thought I had better update my own too as I have been busy this week.
This card was for my Godson. As with everything I seem to have done recently I had a different idea of how it was going to look when I started but for various reasons this is what finally happened!:
Probably not a traditional card for a 5 year old either but Alex is a train fanatic so I had to use these lovely stamps from Molly Blooms.
I've coloured the images in copics, added some highlights with white pen and added fun flock for smoke.
Also coloured some peel off letters and number and added to some card candi which is layered on some punched circles.
A few layers of card, including one using Martha Stewart punch-around-the-page and some SU circle and scallop punches for the sentiment stamp from the stash.
This card is an 8x8" one too. I did enter it in the Molly Blooms Facebook competition but as it wasn't as fancy as I'd planned and after seeing the competition I don't think it will get anywhere but I'm still really pleased with it.
Got another crafty day out tomorrow so will report back on that too.
Love your card Jill and I am sure Alex will love it....your black frame looks great around your image
