This time the challenge over at POLLYCRAFT MONDAY CHALLENGE has been set by Emma w
and Emma wants you to make a male birthday card....for any age....
As Emma rightly told us, it IS meant to be a challenge... but come on girl....male cards!!!!!!
I did mutter a few choice words when I found out about this one......
anyway..... choice words out of the way...heres my card.....
Fortunately I had to make a card for my Nephews birthday, so at least i had something to work with..... I've used the very lovely Dudley...who you can download for free from the shop.....I chose not to decoupage him, because i'm rubbish at it, and instead added a few additional highlights and mounted him onto a cuttlebug embossed circle..... all the papers are from the basics set..... and the sentiment is a mix of dodgy handwriting and die cuts....
green lace is making memories {note worthy}
Emma.....I know I got really frustrated with this challenge at first... but I had fun really..... Thanks for giving us something to think about...and a break from christmas cards!!
Pop over to the Challenge blog to see the rest of the teams cards... and to see what the prize is this week....
Sorry its such a short post..... I'm writing it at midnight Sunday night and scheduling it....I don't think i'll be sleeping tonight as there is rather a difficult Design Team decision to be made!!!
