Back to the land of Dinosaurs....


Good Morning peeps....

This post is about a Birthday card I made a while ago but never blogged!!! Im hoping it still counts in the blog challenges that I wish to enter.

It is a commission order for a 4 year old boys birthday who loves watching the film
"Jurassic Park"!!!  No cartoon dinosaurs were the order of the day so I reverted to a trusty
cdrom by Robert Addams and it is just called Dinosaurs. Such really good value as there is a complete range from cartoon to silhouette to real life complete with the scenery.  It wasnt hard
for me to choose an image as I wanted to make it really scary, hopefully anyway!!  As it was quite large too I had to make an envelope for the card so I used a piece of 12x12 inch patterned paper which is very much a young childs birthday stuff as its covered with loads of balloons on it ;)
The ribbon is from Crafty Ribbons and is from as little as £1 for 1.5mtr!!! Its available in Horses, Dogs, Cats Rabbits & Dinosaurs and each are available in various colourways.... An animal for every child???
I added Pinflair Craft Glaze to the eye so its more lifelike & the image was coloured with Graph It pens. I hope you like it as much as Dan did... ;0 xx

I am entering this card in to the following challenges:

Tuesday Throwdown #201 of which the theme is Dinosaurs
