So I had to whip
up a birthday card real quick for one of my nephew and I used cute Astronaut
Oscar from Simply B Stamps for it.
My nephew got an indoor sky dive for his birthday present, which he loved, so the flight suited Oscar was just perfect. I cropped the image down to suit the current card sketch at Stick It Down. The image formed my “shape”, and then I curved my text around a circle, all of which I did in Photoshop.
I printed everything and then coloured my image before embossing the sentiment by going over it with a VersaMarker. The embossing really helped to frame the image. With my embossing I am entering my card in the current challenge at Creative Knockouts. As my card is for a birthday I am also linking it up at Little Red Wagon for their Let’s Party! challenge.
