Colourful Birthday Card for my Nephew




Hi Everyone! How is everyone doing?
I hope enjoying every sun ray and keeping dry.




I was not planning to do any crafting for some time but
felt touch better  with my health or did I ?
for a few days and with some 
inspiring challenge themes I decided to make a
Birthday card for one of my nephews. 



For this one I really spinned the colour wheel.
I have to say I have never done anything with so many
 colours and almost broke my brain thinking of colours
 which would go together but I like how it turned out at 
the end and the colours will definitely grab any child's 
attention. Don't you agree?Also I had a play with with 
my paper punches, digi-stamps, did a crossstitch effect
 with a twisted cord, embellished, distressed,
promarkered every digi-stamp and I also
 attempted my first paper piecing.
