Colourful Birthday Card for my Nephew

Hi Everyone! How is everyone doing?

I hope enjoying every sun ray and keeping dry.

I was not planning to do any crafting for some time but

felt touch better  with my health or did I ?

for a few days and with some 

inspiring challenge themes I decided to make a

Birthday card for one of my nephews. 

For this one I really spinned the colour wheel.

I have to say I have never done anything with so many

 colours and almost broke my brain thinking of colours

 which would go together but I like how it turned out at 

the end and the colours will definitely grab any child's 

attention. Don't you agree?Also I had a play with with 

my paper punches, digi-stamps, did a crossstitch effect

 with a twisted cord, embellished, distressed,

promarkered every digi-stamp and I also

 attempted my first paper piecing.

Here is the birthday card

With Father's day Celebrations

around the corner

I managed to make this wall hanging.

I used a digital stamp by milkcoffestamps and coloured

with promarkers. I also used MS daisy fan punch 

which is one of the punches I bought ages ago

but have not had a chance to use.

Other 2 punches I used are by tonic and x-cut.

Digital sentiment designed by me in Serif. 

Roses are from WOC.

Glitter,pearls,gemstones,ribbon, lace 

and wire to hold the beads from my stash.

A few pictures to follow.

The complete pics are at the bottom

I created the sentiment in Serif

"Made with Love" charm was 

a present from a lovely crafter.

Label on the packet - 

- (Card Charms - make your own cards)

I also attached a few beads with a wire

for the final finish.

Bellow are 2 complete pictures of

the wall hanging I made.
I could not decide which one to post 
because my camera never really deals 
with light very well and takes everything 
either bleached out or too dark.

So here are both versions...

Thank you very much for stopping by 

and any comment as always is greatly

appreciated!
