Happy Birthday dear Jenna
Earlier this month it was my lovely next door neighbours daughters birthday (get all that?). Jenna was 13. Hard to imagine going back to that!! Anyway…..here’s the card I made her. It had to double as the “wrapping” for her present as well – an itunes voucher. I had to make it look a bit prettier!!! LOL
So you can see that I made a little pull out pocket-y bit on the front of the card to hide the voucher. I had made a little pocket-y bit for it too so that I didn’t have to stick it to anything. I would have much rathered a nice card as opposed to the silly print-out but that’s all the newsagent had! I mean, really! LOL
I have used the sponges and ink on the glossy cardstock to give the effect. Normally I prefer embossing the image but time was not my friend and I had to get it finished. I liked it. Jenna liked it. That’s all that mattered! LOL
Anyway, day 1 of school holidays here today. We’ve just gotten back from a few days at the beach. Went early to avoid crowds. We don’t love crowds! Now it’s back to reality and all that must be accomplished. I just fancy another couple of hours sleep. Ah well. I can sleep when i’m dead I suppose!!
I hope to get back to show you some other projects soon.
Until next time,
Happy stamping!
