aunty anne's card

Good morning all! I hope you had a lovely weekend - we certainly did and we have a busy week planned too - fingers crossed for some sunshine to wash it all down with!

I've got a card to show you today that I've made for my aunty anne's forthcoming birthday - she's a lady who loves a joke - hence the card! I've used one of the bugaboo stamps I was lucky enough to win in the draw over at Crafty Hazelnuts Christmas challenge the other week.




I used a sketch from over at Docrafts and fussy cut some Kate Knight papers. The other papers are basic grey 'life of the party' and the sentiment is papermania. I've added pearls for the Totallt Gorjuss challenge and the colour scheme is for the bright and cheerful theme at secret crafter and orange and yellow at totally papercrafts. I've used neenah crest card and coloured with promarkers. I've distressed the image and joke edges with DI spiced marmalade.

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:
thesecretcraftersaturdaychallenge: Bright and cheerful
totallypapercrafts: Orange and Yellow
divasbydesignchallenge: Happy Birthday
IDICrobynsfetishchallengeblog: Summer fun


Thankyou for visiting my corner of blogland and I hope to see you again soon! Big hugs

Rachel xx
