I made this card for my friend's son's birthday, he''l be seven next weekend. I decided to go along with the whole red, white and blue thing that's so popular just now as his birthday is so close to both the jubilee and the start of the Olympic Games.
The image is a freebie from Sliekje Digi Stamps and has been coloured with Promarkers. I then used ultra fine white Flower Soft to add texture to the fur on the robes and crown and glued on some kingly bling to the crown.
The papers are Papermania Portobello Road and came free with Creativity magazine as did the Happy Birthday sentiment. The stamp shaped sentiment with the crown on is also from the Portobello Road range, as are the ribbon and bow.
The bunting was made with a Forever Friends stamp from a baby set, and was simply paper pieced and decorated with number peel offs.
A few blobs of Pearl Pen finish it off.
I'm entering this card in the following challenges -
Passion for Promarkers - #152 - red, white and blue
Di's Digi Designs - male creations
Digi Haven - #1 - freebie forever
Delicious Doodles - #21 - for the fellas
Jellypark Challenges - boy crazy
Sweet Sketch - #157
