January Blues

Finally got my act together and uploaded my entry to the Get Funky challenge for January which is 'January Blues'.








The papers are all from the 'Birthday Boy' collection on Happy Happy Birthday. I've used a white, scalloped card blank from Craftwork Cards and a Penny Black stamp coloured with Promarkers. The mat for the image was cut with a scalloped Nestie and so that there will be somewhere to write a greeting, I've cut a slightly smaller scalloped circle in white for the inside. No sentiment as the backing paper says it all but a couple of buttons were added as a finishing touch, these were threaded with silver cord first because they have 4 holes and looked a bit 'naked'.

I'm also entering this card for the first challenge at Emmas Cards UK which just happens to be 'Shades of Blue', and challenge # 72 on the CES Challenge Blog which is 'Lots of Layers - 3 or more'


Thanks for looking,
Lynn x
