DIE-NAMICS 'ALL-STAR HIGH TOP'

Good evening!
Today's card is for my youngest son's birthday which was yesterday:





I used:
DIE-NAMICS  'ALL-STAR HIGH TOP' DIE
DIE-NAMICS  'WONKY STITCH RECTANGLES DIES'
MEMORY BOX NUMBERS
RETIRED STAMPIN' UP PAPER 
LOTV SENTIMENT TAGS and the 'son' was Forever Friends stamp

CHALLENGES:

I modelled my card on my son's own Converse so I knew what colours to use!
It is hard to believe that my baby is 19 ..... eeek! I was married at his age!
Right must dash although in this heat move slowly would be better ;-)
Thanks for visiting and I hope you have had a great weekend.

JANE SHASKY 'FROM THE HEART OF THE GARDEN CD'

Hello again!
I'm back with another card - this time from a CD:




The image is from the Jane Shasky 'From the heart of the garden' CD - there are so many beautiful images on this double CD set that I'm sure to use it very often!
The papers are from LemonCraft 'house of roses', Stampin' Up ribbon and candy dots and butterfly punch from my stash.
You probably can't see it but I went around the papers with a dressmaking tracing wheel to add texture. I also inked the edges of everything.

Challenges:

Thanks for popping by and I hope you have a lovely weekend!

EK Success border punch
Pink Petticoat sentiment

I would like to enter the following challenges:
