Game Boy

This is another of the cards that I made for the September edition of Making Cards Magazine.

I used some of the fabulous Jasmine and Oliver Teenager stamps from LOTV to make four cards, this one uses the Oliver Game Boy stamp - isn't he just perfect for those difficult teenage boys.

I coloured him with ProMarkers and have used mainly red and black card stock, keeping to a monochrome design.

The sentiment is from the same LOTV collection, the stars are punched with some 3D Crystal Lacquer added and the ribbon is from my stash.
