I'm so excited, this is my first post as a Design Team member for
Forever Friends, I just love these cute little bears. I have joined the Monthly Challenge DT and our theme for December is 'Christmas Cards', I'm sure you still need to make a few - I know I certainly do.
This is my card, my youngest son decided he wanted it to give to his big brother, hence the sentiment - Matt always wears big baggy jumpers so I can see why Laurence thought it would be ideal for him.
It's quite a simple card really, I printed the image several times and decoupaged it, I bet that's a surprise to those of you who know me. Full details of everything I have used are listed below.
I have decorated the inside of my card using the same design and papers as the front:
Card Recipe:
Image and Papers: Docrafts - Forever Friends Collector's Edition CD
Card Stock: Crafter's Companion - Core'dinations, corrugated card from stash
Tools: Spellbinders - Standard Circle and Scalloped Circle, X-cut - Star die
Embellishments: buttons and raffia from stash
Sentiment: Basic Grey - alphabet stickers
We have two fab sponsors this month, the sponsor for the randomly picked winner is::
Prize - $10 voucher to spend in their store
and The Forever Friends Favourite is sponsored by:
Prize - 4 digital images
I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
Make sure you pop over to the
Forever Friends Challenge Blog and take a look at the fabulous DT inspiration, we would love for you to join us for this months 'Christmas Cards' challenge. Whilst you are there you still have time to join our special Christmas Give-Away Prize Draw
