Good morning, it's time for a new challenge at Crafty Catz.
This fortnight we are sponsored by Last Minute Manda
The theme is Anything Goes with the option of Child's Birthday
I made a birthday card for a little boy using sponsor images from a set called Monster Birthday Train.
For the front of the card I cropped the engine image to use just the monster balanced on the top, coloured it with my markers and added the die cut 'hello' and stamped sentiment. It looked a bit too bare so I added a doodled border.
Inside there's a pop up train, all coloured with markers and cut out to stand on the hand drawn track. Stencilled clouds and a peeping sun in the background. I had a lot of fun making this!
There's plenty more inspiration to enjoy over at Crafty Catz Challenge Blog.
Thanks for visiting
Have a great weekend
Chris

That cheeky monster perched on top is such a playful touch—he sets the scene brilliantly for the fun inside. The pop-up train is pure delight, bursting with color and personality, and that sunny background with stenciled clouds adds just the right hint of whimsy. You’ve truly created a joyful little adventure in card form that any child would treasure!
ReplyDeleteI loved the front, but then inside - magic! Perfect for a little one.
ReplyDeleteHow darling, Chris! Loving your sunny day filled with big fluffy clouds! But the train is especially cute with the pop up features. That makes me want to make one, too! Aren't those train tracks so cute for the dimension? Super cute! hugs, de
