Good morning folks!
YAY, it's Friday already and the weekend is approaching ;o)
I've actually managed to make a boy's card! I was inspired by this gorgeous Squiggle Stamps image, such a cutie, and I knew straight away that the Basic Grey Archaic papers would be perfect. Then when I saw that the challenge over at Everybody Art was 'shabby' I was raring to go!! I really do love the grunge look, lots of inking and ripping and sanding...... just my thing!
I added some gloss to the balloon, hope you can pick that up on the photo. I also embossed the horizontal green panel for extra texture and added some lovely thick twine...... all in all a very touchy feely card.
I must dash now as I'm at work and need to make some phone calls to chase a few missing students...... I don't know, one week into term and some of them are skiving already, lol!!!
Have a lovely day peeps and thanks so much for popping by to see my creations ;o)

AWWWW!!! How cute, gorgeous image - perfect for the Archaic papers. Love your layout and your distressing is spectacular.
Tell me about students - when I was teaching at college, half of them turned up between 10-11 - took 2 hours lunch. Much prefered mature students - there because they want to be, not for an easy option.
