Boy's Birthday Card

Hello everyone! Sorry for my lack of posting within the last week. Looks like the snow is starting to clear a little now, although it's in that horrible stage where it's partly melted and it's gone all slushy and brown! Yuck! I've had great fun in it, but at least it'll be safer on the roads soon.
I decided to make a boy's birthday card, as I saw this cute image is my image box, and male cards aren't something I do a lot of. I was downstairs when I found my mum's Dymo machine, and I thought it would be nice to personalise the card in some way, by putting a name on it, but for who? My brother's birthday isn't until June, but I thought I might as well get it done early!
I'm entering it into this week's Cute Card Thursday Challenge, where the theme is: 'All New!', where you can enter your card if you've used something new on it. I've used new papers.




















Materials:
Image: Alota
Sentiment: Alota
Name: Dymo Machine
Eyelets: PaperMania
Colouring: Pro Markers
Backing Paper: K&Co.
Embellishments: From my stash


















Thanks so much for looking and enjoy the rest of your week! :)
Love, Georgia xx

Hi Georgia, Wow this is a fab card! Great image and fab sentiment. I also love how you have personalised it for your brother.

The snow is starting to thaw here and is at the slushy stage. I hate slush but at least that means the children are back at school lol!
