Next week it is my son's 17th birthday and in the uk that is the age when they can take driving lessons, and that is all he speaks about just now who we can book for his lessons! so have been wracking my brain to think of a card for him and so went looking at my favourite challenges to seek inspiration and found it on the Less is More site with their challenge ROUND and ROUND and I shamelessly CASed both of Chrissies ...they do say that copying is the highest form of praise remember Chrissie :-) and I totally agree and thanks for the picture tutorial for a spinner card ...though mine is more a slider card!, which I managed no bother (well when I unstuck my fingers from the tape that is ) Did originally think of a car then realised it would roll sideways so went with the SU motorbike instead, and computer generated the sentiment to make it a bit more personal.
Now off to seek inspiration for a get well card for a friend who is in hospital just now.....

p.s was updating the blog when I noticed that for some reason blogger has decided to add a pink cast to my card ! Honest the real card and the original post don't have it ...ah the wonder of blogger!!
I am truly flattered Jenni!
ReplyDeleteThis looks terrific, I'm sure your son will be thrilled with it. Good luck to him too!
Thanks so much

Great card! I used the same idea. It's a challenge alone to make it. Had the same problem with the tape!
ReplyDeleteOoh, very impressive Jenni, don't think I've ever made a slider card. It's fab. xx
ReplyDeleteWonderful card Jenni, love the image - perfect for a slider card.

A great card! Made mine for a girlfriend who drives her motor for years... Hope your son has happy and save km´s! Inky greetings, Gerrina
ReplyDeleteNice card! I think that is a great image choice for something that has motion to it, and very fitting for the occasion.

Isn't that something about the pink? I love your card, of course, Jenni, and must CASE it for Mister, but I was wondering how you did that beautiful subtle sponging! Wouldn't it be nice if Blogger did that to, say, a flower card?!
ReplyDeleteThis is fabulous Jenni, well done.Oooh yes I do see the pink 'haze', I do love pink though so no worries. Sorry I am late commenting again :) Viv xx
ReplyDeleteI bet he's really pleased with his card and that it works! Have you given him ideas though to go for a motorbike! x
ReplyDeleteWonderful card Jenni, cards for the chaps are always a challenge but this works brilliantly, I love it!! x
ReplyDeleteHi Jenni, Thank you for leaving a very kind comment, you haven't blogged for a while, I do hope all is well for you, hugs Gay x
