Birthdays at Christmas Time
For my project I have used the image
from Ryan
The Footballer. This fabulous pack has the image in 3 formats and 4 papers
for only $3. This is superb value and a great combination for men’s cards.
Head over to the Daisy Doodles Store to check it out and all the other great digi’s that are
available !

This week we welcome Crafting Vicky
onto our Design Team. I work alongside her on another team and she makes fabulous
cards. I totally admire how she works full time, has 4 children and still
manages to make so many cards. I am in complete awe of how she fits it all in !!
Anyhoo the theme of this challenge is
quite dear to me as my Nephew has his birthday on Christmas Day. We all go to
great lengths to make sure he has a birthday and a Christmas. The poor kids
always get a rough deal if their birthdays are so close to Christmas.
This is the second card I have made
with Ryan. I tend not to make so many men’s cards but it seems if you have a
sports theme you are generally pretty safe and this is a great image to use as
you can colour it up in a particular team’s colours.
I use shades of blue throughout and
matched Ryan up with some papers from Papermania. I have used a sketch for the
layout using scraps of card for the layers.
Keeping it clean for embellishments I’ve added some buttons that were
recycled off an old shirt.

I hope you will pop over to the blog

seeing your entries in for our Challenge.
