Bearlymine Designs Challenge Twentythird - "One for the Boyz"

Good Morning Everyone, before I start I want to let you know that our very talented and much loved Team Leader and Blog Owner Donna is in hospital at the moment and is not at all well, so I want to wish her lots of love and sincere hopes that it wont be long before she is back with the team again. Anyway for this fortnights Challenge we are asking you to create a card especially for "One for the Boyz" so Im sure it will get your creating thoughts working. And for this Challenge we are being sponsered by the following people:-


Wow those are truly an awesome selection of prizes, wish we were allowed to take part as I would love to win some of them. Anyway heres my card for this Challenge.
For my card I selected "Toy Soldier" for my card its a Kenny K image and you will find it here, Ive printed her onto white card then used my copic and tria pens to colour her, then used the large Rectangle Nestabilitie Die to cut her out then used the die to again to draw around to create the mount for it. The sentiment was one I created on my computer and printed it onto white card then mounted it in the same way as my image.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of blue card and one of five papers from Donna's Bearlymine Designs "Christmas Wishes" Digi Download Set and you will find it here. The first paper is blue background with white stars on, on top of this is a diamond shaped pattern in white and blue, the third is a blue and white strip one and this was placed down the card, then across the card is a beige, white and blue striped one, and for my five paper I have used another star paper but in several different sizes on a blue background.
The mounted image was then positioned in the middle with the sentiment at the bottom on the right hand side.
Now that youve seen my card do please go and visit the Bearlymine Challenge Blogspot and see what the rest of the Design Team have created for you, and hopefully it will inspire you to take part in this weeks "One for the Boyz" Challenge.
