Birthday Beetle.

It;s hubby's nephew's birthday on saturday so i thought i'd best delve into my male stash and make him a card. I think he's 20 this year so in typical young lad fashion he'll probably just grunt and leave it on the coffee table, especially if there's no cash in it!! I know some people struggle with male cards but i quite like doing them, they make a bit of a change from all the girly stuff.

Being a young lad i thought a car would suit. The stamp is from Funstamps and is one of the fist stamps i ever bought , about 4 years ago. The paper is the Papermania "for him" stack, probably as old as the stamp.As always i used promarkers for colouring.I don't really like peel offs but sometimes they can fill in the odd gap.I won't be able to go to Hobbycraft NEC this year but i am going to Hobbycraft Chester today as a compromise (funds won't strech to NEC).If i buy any decent stash i'll do another post when i get back.Sometimes i get loads, sometimes i wonder why i bothered going. Still there's a TK Maxx next door..........                 Hugs Di. xx
