Friday is here and the second day of September....time is speeding along.
Todays card I created for my friends sons 15th birthday. He has been known to sit in front of the computer or xbox for a little while each day. So I thought this image from Mo Manning was very apt. I have coloured him with my Copic pens and really like the end result. Although I did colour in a little too much ..... can you spot my mistake?
To make the card I started with a blank white square card. Then a layer of Stampin Up Perfect Plum. Next is a layer of paper I received as a prize. I have attacked the edges of all the paper and card stock with the edge of scissors to give them a distressed look. Even tore the green patterned papers a couple of times. Thought it could not look too neat for a 15 yo boy. Finished with the card with these wonderful brass looking star and square brads. Also a quiet little Happy Birthday sticker.
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend and I catch up again with you on Monday with my DT card for our new Unstampabelles challenge. You still have a chance to enter into this months challenge - Wheels. There is a great prize on offer from Kelly and Kaszazz.

ReplyDeleteFantastic card for your son Merry. Love the colouring on the image and love all the torn and distressed bits. Bet your friend's son loves it! I would never have picked up the extra bit that you coloured unless you had said something - even then it took me a while to find it. Great masculine card!!
