A Gem of a Challenge - Male Birthday Card

Hi everyone, hope your weekend has been better than mine so far, i spent last night in hospital with post op complications and am feeling decidedly rough today, it looks like im going to have to have more surgery too ... boo!

Luckily I made today's card earlier this week, so the theme for this week at A Gem of a Challenge is Male Birthday card (must use word "Birthday" )

So here's what I did:



I used Andy with Snail and coloured him up with my fabulous new Graph'it Markers!



I don't remember the name of the papers, so sorry I lost the front cover.



I used a selection of dies on my card too from Die-Namics, spellbinders and Whimsy.

I finished off with some doodling round the edges.

Hope you like it!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend, hugs xx Cara xx

I'd like to enter my card into the following challenges:

 Crafts for eternity - spots and stripes
Jellypark - Masculine
My Heart pieces - use a digi
Crafting for all seasons - one for the guys
Sisterhood of crafters - all about the boys
