Challenge #423 - A Birthday Card - The Paper Shelter Challenge

Good Morning Paper Shelter Followers, I hope you all had a quiet Easter Ive no doubt your families were not to happy that they didn't get to see their grandparents to collect their eggs, I know my own great grandchildren normally have a Easter Egg hunt in the garden so Ive a feeling my grandson had to arrange a smaller one in his garden among all the builders flotsam as he has been extending  his bungalow and you know how it drifts into the garden.
Anyway this weeks theme is to create a

A Birthday Card

one of the most simple themes but one of the most popular.
 And you will find some beautiful images over at The Paper Shelter and there's lot to choose from for this theme to. Our Sponsors are and as always are The Paper Shelter and they are offering a fabulous prize of $30. to spend on their website.


But don't forget they will only give you the whole amount if you have used one of their images on your card but don't worry if you haven't, they will still give you 3 digi images or your own choice if you are picked as a winner.
For this weeks card I have used this image




For my card I used this "Mad about Videos" you will find it here, it was made for one of my great grandsons who's made about playing games on his gameboy, I printed him onto white card and used my copic pens to colour it, afterwards I used a rectangle die to cut it out and a fancy one with blue card for the mount.
For the base card I used a 6.50"x 6.50" white card with a first mount out of blue card and the backing paper I have used is from the same design set as the image and you will find it here. I then placed my mounted image in the middle with the sentiment which is stamped onto a piece of white card and also mounted on another piece of the blue card and then stuck in the bottom right hand corner. To finish of I have placed several buttons down the right and left hand side.
 Now that you've seen my card I do hope that you will pay a visit to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blogspot to see what the rest of the Design Team have created for your inspiration and hopefully you will want to take part in this  "Birthday Card" Challenge to.
