Thumbs Up

A cheery Birthday card using Birthday Sentiment Sheet 01 from Dr Digi and the famous thumbs up sign of facebook.  All I've added is the facebook logo and some little punched stars and some black ribbon.

Nice and quick and good for a teen!

It can be hard to make a Birthday card for a male or even a pesky teenager but this sentiment from Birthday Sentiment Sheet 01 from Dr Digi, along with the iconic thumbs up logo from Facebook, and the problem is solved!

I've added some black gems to the cuff and used some recycled twine (it was from a garment tag) and job is done!

Have you popped over to the Dr Digi page on Facebook?  We've moved everything over there and also have a fortnightly challenge set by the Design Team!

I've used Birthday Sentiment Sheet 01 to make this perfect card for a pesky teenager!  I found a typical Facebook icon image and added the sentiment as a tag.  Nice and quick to make!

Geriatric Super Powers (Part 1)

Apologies this post is a little late however it's all in the name of Geriatric Super Powers, namely Captain Thunderpants.

He did start the crime fighting spree early doors (5:30am) but has only just this very moment made it out of the front door.

Sentiment is from the Birthday Sentiment Sheet 01 along with Captain Thunderpants (coloured with Promarkers) and both are from Dr Digi.

Cake!

If it's worth waiting for then it must be good!  Never more a true word said about a Birthday Cake from Dr Digi and this one is one on it's own!

Hmmmm, I'm hungry!  Sentiment is from the Birthday Sentiments 01 sheet.  Papers are from Funky Hand - Funky Daze and I've layered the offcuts with black card.  Everything else including the spoon and fork charms are from my stash.

More Wine?!

Quite true really! At least it makes you temporarily forget just how many years! But then the morning hangover reminds you that you are no spring chicken!  Sentiment is from the Birthday Sentiments sheet in the Dr Digi store.

Papers are from Funky Hand - Little Princess download and everything else is from my stash - X Cut fancy die used.

Ah, there is nothing better than a lovely cake. Actually, yes there is; a multi layered cake! Buy your Birthday Cake digi from the Dr Digi store and don't forget the sentiment too!

I've coloured the image with Promarkers, cut it out and then used a strip of acetate to attach it to the card.  Everything else is from my stash!

Age Is Just A Number....

.... In your case, a really high one.  Say what you see!  To pinch a catchphrase!  Sentiment from the Birthday Sentiment Sheet 01 from Dr Digi - just great for when you need something quick.  And insulting.

I've used a We R Memory Keepers tool to make the stitching holes and then with a black fineliner pen, joined up the dots - faux stitching at its finest!  Papers I found in my stash (needed to use them up) and circles cut with dies.  Little bronze dinosaur charm from my ever growing stash of charms (can't knock ebay and China!)

Happy Birthday!

A nice n easy one this week - a simple Happy Birthday. And what more could you want than some candles for the cake you treated yourself to! Sentiment from the very fab Dr Digi Birthday Sentiments Sheet 1.

The stripy paper is from the equally lovely Funky Hand - Keep In Touch download which has just been released and its only £2.49!

Get To The Point

I think there is a lot to be said for getting right to the point. Why say something in 10 words when just a few will do? And if they don't like it, well, that's their look-out; you did use some jolly paper - what more could you do?

Sentiment taken from Birthday Sentiments 1 from the good Dr Digi. And only £1.50 with plenty of others that you can use to insult the remainder of your friends and family!

I've used the remainder of a die cut to frame the sentiment and added a dotted black fineliner around the edges. The papers are left overs from a previous project so I had to be rather careful how I printed the sentiment onto it and the alignment! I hate to throw anything away and usually have a few die cut frames lying around that I can use! Even the kraft card is left over from something!

Professor Dummkopf from Dr Digi doesn't mince his words!

Sentiment taken from Birthday Sentiments Sheet 01. And just incase your eyesight is fading, the sentiment is rather large on the card!

I've coloured the image with Promarkers and layered the sentiment onto offcuts of card and used a sheet of acetate for the base. Quite simple!

Popping A Wheelie

Ah, Malcolm really misses his Chopper. It was his pride and joy and he rode it at great speed through the Municiple Park with the other youths (although he could pass for early 20's he really was pushing 50). Still, he's not lost his touch despite being in his 80's, and here he is popping a back wheel wheelie in his mobility scooter.

Mobility Malcolm from Dr Digi is still causing mayhem but now on four wheels. I've coloured him with Promarkers, used a brick wall backing paper from Polkadoodles Work and Play cd Vol 2. Sizzix die cut grass and fence and the sentiment is from Dr Digi too.
