In a few hours we'll be getting up to celebrate our little man's 4th Birthday!! I can't believe he is 4 already!!! Now anyone who reads this blog knows that I use soft colours, pearls and the like for my cards, so this is way out into left field for me.....where's my sunglasses??? :) I thought I'd use this week's Week-end Sketch Challenge as inspiration for his card.I started with a base of vibrant green, layered with white and mid blue and topped with some Jasart paper. Used the same blue for the vertical strip and embossed with Spots and Dots EF. The white layer has been stamped using the small star from In the Stars by SU and the popped up Rocket is by Sandylion coloured in Ballet Blue and So Saffron. The sentiment panel is made using Just Rite Stampers. I've used the Small Letter Set for the writing around the edge and Times New Roman Font and stamper from the Damask DIY monogram set. Cut them out with circle nestabilities and a 1 1/4in punch for the 'B' (which is popped up) and the pinking nesties for the green layer. Finished off by adding a touch of spotted grosgrain ribbon to the bottom. (Yes I know the sketch says to put it at the top of my rocket panel.....but it just wouldn't go there!!! Do you think they'll mind??)

Thank you so much to everyone who have asked about my finger. Thankfully the swelling has gone down, but it's still a lovely shade of purple and green!! With all the rain we are getting here at the moment softball could well be called off this week, and that would suit me just fine right now!!! Well tomorrow is going to be a big day so I'm going to get some sleep, thanks for visiting!!! :)
