Whoo's having a Birthday!

Hi everyone,

My card today is one I created for my daughter who is celebrating her birthday today! She has been living in London since February, teaching and as she is a big fan of Dr Who I decided to use this thing for her birthday this year. 

As I don't have anything Dr Who related in stamps, I decided to Google Dr Who digital stamps and discovered some from MayzyArt which I liked so purchased those. 

I knew I wanted to create a Pop Stand Card, so used the Pop Stand die from the Eiffel Tower Pop Card Stand die set designed by Karen Burniston for Elizabeth Craft Designs.

I had to add some grass to the bottom of the Tardis as it wasn't level and I needed it to be so it could be adhered to the Pop Stand piece of the card. 

All the sentiments for this card are computer generated.

The bonus of digital stamps is that you can print them out whichever size you need and you can also flip them if needed. As I needed the other side of the Tardis & Dr Who be the mirror image of the front image this was easy to do. You can tell it is mirrored as the words Police Box are back to front ... but it worked for my purposes ... this is the back of the card after all.

 

Here is a side of photo of my card so you can see the Pop Stand part of the card a little better.

For the front of my card I used MFT Stamps Concentric Circles stencil and 4 different distress inks to  ink my background. I also added some flicks of white paint to give it a more out of this world look.

As my daughter is living in London at present I also added the London Skyline and the Tardis flying over the skyline ... I am not sure where it will land haha!

It’s TIME for your birthday

Hi everyone,

My youngest daughter’s birthday was last week and I had to make her a card. As she loves Dr Who I decided I would go with a Dr Who theme this year. Which is just as well as when I mentioned her card she told me it should have the Tardis on it … phew!

As you can see I have created a pop up card using the Lorna Label Pop Up die set designed by Karen Burniston for Elizabeth Craft Designs.

If you look at my card you can see that I have created a Double Pop Up card having a pop up on the both sides of the card. To create this effect I placed the centre part of the die on the card when it was folded in half rather than open.

The Dr Who images are Digital Stamps I found online from Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons. The sentiment at the top of the card I computer generated. The other two sentiments on my card are from an Owl stamp set … I thought the Whoo in the sentiment worked with the Dr Who theme.

Here is a side on view of my card so you can see the pop up on both sides of the card.

Here is the front of my card, apparently these are the Doctors 9, 10, 11.
