Cute Card Thursday Challenge #62

Hi there!

I'm entering this card into this week's Cute Card Thursday Challenge. The theme over there is 'bling' which suits me!

I love adding sparkly stuff to my card so I found this easy. I've put a line of gems along the bottom edge of the image and glitter on Snoopy's plane.

I've made this card for my dad for Father's Day - I'm quite pleased with it as I used a layout I wouldn't normally use.

I also tried distressing which I wasn't very confident in doing but my mum gave me a mini tutorial so I get the basic idea of how to do it now.

Materials:

Image: Snoopy

Sentiment: Printed off the computer

Backing Paper: PaperMania

Embossing Folder: Cuttlebug

Gems: PaperMania

Ribbon: Unknown

Glitter: Stickles

I thought I'd leave you with a few pictures of my dad's new aquarium. He's always wanted one so in secret, we got him one for his fortieth!

He was really chuffed and now we've got some fish in it so I thought I'd show you a couple of pictures.

We have four 'red balloon platies' which we've called 'The Red Arrows' because they're really fast.

We've also got five 'neon tetras' called 'The Jackson Five', lol!

Finally we've got five 'zebra danios'. We haven't thought of a group name for them yet so if you have any ideas, they would be very welcome! They are yellowy-cream with little stripes, if that helps.

Next week we're getting two 'red dwarf gouramis' and a catfish. We're not sure about a group name for the gouramis yet but we're naming the catfish Bobby after my cat who died.

Anyway, I'll stop rambling on now and sign off. Sorry sbout the length of the post!
Thanks for looking!
