As my hubby was out for work AGAIN tonight (it has been a busy and rough week for all of us..), I decided to make a card instead! So here is what I created:
And, inspired by some other crafters out there.... (thanks Annika for inspiring me!), I decided to decorate the inside too:
I am still unsure on whether I am absolutely 100% happy with my creation, but I guess that overall I am!! :o)
And with this card I would like to enter the following challenges:
- Isabella's challenge: honouring mothers (ends 12th May)
- Digi Doodle challenge: sketch (ends 13th May)
- Dare U 2: anything goes (ends 20th May)
- Lili of the valley challenge: here comes summer (ends 13th May)
