Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Linda wants us to make a card for a child.
or, play along with our anything goes birthday option.
Our party guests and my team mates have some wonderful cards to inspire you, so I hope to see you in the gallery.
I made quite a few backgrounds by smooshing glossy photo paper in distress and oxide inks .
(I think this one was just vintage photo distress ink).
This is a fiddly die but fun!
I layered all of the pieces onto black pieces before assembling them so that they would have some dimension.
The background is cardstock smooshed into pumice stone and tea dye oxide inks.
I inked over some of it to create the sky, and finished it with a diecut palm tree and some greenery.
I'm linking up to these challenges:
Make My Monday, tag it
Edited to add:
I'm also linking up to a new to me challenge Park Hopping My Happy Place as my Jurassic scene is a bit like the ride at Universal Studios, would love to go there one day, long way from Australia though!
Thankyou Makira for the suggestion!
Dies: Sizzix prehistoric; MFT wild greenery and tag stax; Poppystamps grassland border; palm tree brand unknown;
Other: oxide and distress inks; sentiment sticker, glossy photo paper.
Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x

Your card is perfect for a little one that loves dinosaurs. My grandoson loved them when he was 2, he is now 27. :)
Your dinosaur card is perfect for someone who love dinosaurs. The background that you created works so well for your stegosaurs.
Cathy, a dinosaur is certainly a favorite of many boys, so you can't go wrong with this for a birthday card! And this is a pretty cool looking dino too!
So beautiful! Thank you for playing at MMMChallenge.
