We have an official teenager in the house as of this weekend! Hard to believe my big guy is 13, but it's true! To help celebrate the occasion, I wanted to create an extra-special card for him, and right now, he's big-time into Doctor Who. So, I set to work to create a timey-wimey card, and here's how it turned out:
It took a bit of work to transform the telephone box stamp from the Feeling Sentimental set (from Sale-a-Bration a few years ago) into something resembling a TARDIS, but my fan was happy with how it turned out. Not perfect, but at least close enough he got what I was going for and it made him smile! Mission accomplished!
I created the 13 using the Large Numbers Framelits die, and the words are from the Number of Years stamp set. I stamped them on a map design from the Going Places Designer Paper Stack, and the star chart background is also from that pack. I sponged Whisper White on the star chart design, then a bit of Rich Razzleberry, and finished with stamping the circular/coffee stains-like image from the Timeless Textures stamp set in Whisper White to create a time travel trail for the TARDIS. Here's another view of that:
For the inside, I used a strip of the star chart design along the bottom, and again altered that a bit with some sponging and stamping the image from Timeless Textures. The "13" and sentiment are from the Number of Years set:
A fun card to create and give! Hope you enjoyed seeing it, too.
Thanks for visiting my blog!
