Growing Up Is Optional . . .

It's time for another challenge with us at the

This month we are letting our creative juices flow with
Crafty Gals Corner Challenges are monthly.
Each crafter may only submit 3 projects per challenge.

~~~*~~~*~~~

The sponsors for this challenge are:


Bugaboo Digital Stamps
Prize ~ $12 gift certificate

Prize ~ $5 Gift Certificate

Prize ~ 2 Digital Images

~~~*~~~*~~~

Today I have used the Gus Birthday - Optional digital stamp from Bugaboo Stamps, one of our generous sponsors this month.  Masculine birthday cards can be a challenge but with this image it's both fun and funny.



I started with a 5" x 7" rectangle in Silhouette Studio and added a tar road.  Next came the very adventurous Gus on his scooter.  I overlaid the PNG format of the image then added the sentiment.  I printed the image panel on X-Press It blending card, heat set then colours with Copic markers.  I trimmed the panel to size and used liquid adhesive to secure it on to a 5" x 7" top folding card base.  ... it's a challenge when you run out of crafty essentials during these current restrictions, so I trimmed and scored a sheet of heavy (300gsm) smooth white A3 cardstock to make my super sturdy card base.


~~~*~~~*~~~


NOW it's YOUR turn!

I hope that I have inspired you to get creative
and look forward to seeing your projects fill the gallery for
Crafty Gals Corner Challenges are monthly.
Each crafter may only submit 3 projects per challenge.
