Ryan's 15th

So here I was dreading another boy's card .... UGH!!  And 15 no less so that age seems to be even harder but I think I pulled it off again!  LOL!!  Phew!  Used some papers from Bo Bunny called "Weekend Market" collection, added some textured layers, some odds & ends and a ball and tee cut using my Silhouette.  "PAR-FECT"

I'm entering into 2 challenges:

Kenny K's Krafty Girlz Challenges - Pearls and I have used Liquid pearls here.  Who would have thought to add pearls to a boy's card.  hee hee

I was inspired by this sketch from Papertake Weekly:

Well thanks for stopping by to check this one out.

Have a wonderfully creative week!! 

Happy Birthday Lance

First off I must shout out a HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my step-dad.  I wish I could be there to see his face when he gets this card.  I think he'll giggle.

When my sister was here visiting a few weeks ago she had this printed up and lying on the table.  I thought it was cute so I started coloring her up!  I'm not so sure if you can see it unless you click to enlarge the photo but I added Crackle Accents to the sprockets.  It looks way cool IRL!

Challenges

***Upon suggestion, I am also adding this to Top Tip Tuesday's "Altered tins & Metal Mickey Challenge" which means use any metal embellies.  I have very little (my snaps in the lower r/h corner) but I've been advised that this counts!!  hee hee

This was a birthday card for Uncle Grant who's bday was Jan. 1st.  Can you imagine?  I don't like having my birthday in November but there are far worse days to have one.  hee hee

I'm entering this card in

Papertake Weekly for "Anything Goes" 
and also

Friday Sketchers #135 for their great sketch!!

And once again this is just a quick post.  If you want any details please let me know.  Sorry!
