With the trip to Edinburgh, I was almost too late to make a card for him, and it was a bit of a rush, but he really liked it (well, he made the appropriate noises anyway!). Here it is:
I used a sort of a combination of this week's and last week's sketches from Mojo Monday and I'm also entering the following challenges: Craft your Passion, Brown Sugar, Chocolate Coffee + Cards("Anything Goes"), ABC Challenge ("B is for ... " boy and birthday and black), Fab 'n' Funky ("Male Birthday") and A Gem of a Challenge ("Boy's Birthday").
I made some acrylic paint on kraft panels, I also used some lovely new stamps - the ink splot I particularly like. I made the 14 and the J, E and D and popped up the 14 on a spring from an old notebook - here's a side-shot:
Recipe:
Paper: October Afternoon "Seaside"
Stamps: IndigoBlu "Ink Splats" and My Favourite Things "Go with It"
Fonts: "Handwriting Draft" and "Dark Underground" dafont.com
Other: Acrylic paint, black e.p., spring from notebook
