Hi Everyone, well what a rush I have been in, so many things to do, however nearly at the end now and I'll be able to show, what I've been up to.
Anyhow, here is one card that had to be rushed! I had forgotten to update my calendar and had to rush and make this card for our Great Nephew. He was 3 last week, how quick time goes.
His Sister and he had been bought a motorbike for their combined birthdays, so I had at least an interest to make a card with. I found this dear little image in my files which has been in my files for a long time (2013). As usual, I print and cut with my Cameo the frame and the image 3 times. I coloured him with DI's and silver ink. He was then layered and added to the frame which I had already attached to the card.
I then stamped my envelope with the twine stamp I used for the bauble card, (previous post).
I hope you are all dry and warm with this awful weather we are having, rain, rain and more rain. There we were worried that our reservoirs were too low, and people were worried about the drought, now we deal with flooding! Ah! The good old British weather ay? Have a great week.

Sounds like the perfect image for the little fellow Faith, it's so sweet and really pops with the chequered border.
Don't know about water shortage, the Ouse near us is at bursting point which we've not seen for a year or two.

What a perfect card for your little one, lovely bright colours and a great design, Kate x
This is great, I love the way he seems to be going on a journey through the card. You will be pleased to hear that I took your advice and cut out an image with my scan n cut and stacked it just as you do. I have to say, it worked a treat so thank you for your advice and encouragement. Owen will love his special card xx
Super cute card with little guy on the motor bike! Wonderful color and love the checked border! Happy 3rd birthday to Owen!!
Brilliant, fun card Faith, you always manage to find just the right image to suit the occasion and this is just perfect xx

Faith, the sun came out here this afternoon and it was like HEAVEN! No more rain...for a few days at least, lol. Now, I very much love your card and I know he will as well. And LOVE how you did the insides, too!!! Really eye-catching and finishes it perfectly. Try to stay dry and, as always, well and happy! XOX

Hi Faith! Thanks for stopping by my blog this morning to comment on my card. I completely hear you when you say "I thought I'd already commented on this card.." because I often leave a comment on a blog only to learn that it didn't publish somehow. I'll never quite understand Blogger. LOL
Your motorbike card is adorable. What a darling image and you color so nicely. Of course, I would LOVE to have you come share your art with us at Word Art Wednesday. That's always a blessing to me, and your comments on my blog are always a blessing to me as well. I do hope you are having a blessed and creative week.
Hugs,
Karen

Missed this post completely because I didn't get notified by Follow.It. Super adorable image, and I love the background you created in PhotoShop! Awesome card!
Well this card certainly has a lot going on and in a good way, must have taken ages but it's definitely worth it as the result is stunning.
