Forever In A Flap!!!


Challenges

M.A.W.T.T. (42) - Sketch
Paperplay (15) - Stickers
Daring Cardmakers - Getting In A Flap
Cupcake Craft (87) - Red & White
Forever Friends - Numbers
Doodle Palace - Choose From A List Of Challenges (Too many to list)
Fab 'N' Funky (20) - Get It All Out
A Gem Of A Challenge (3) - Special Birthdays

I have made this card for my nephew's birthday in June and managed to get it to fit quite a few challenges, a challenge in itself. I have followed the great sketch although I planned to use it for a totally different card (watch this space!). I turned the sketch so that I could make a 'tent' card and so that the Forever Friends stickers would fit. From the Doodle Palace list I have chosen Black, Red & Neutral/Letters & Numbers. My neglected stash are the FF Stickers/Peel-Offs and the Black Swivelly Things (don't know what they are called). For the 'Flap' I have made 'a card on a card' which opens up as you can see in the second picture. The corners were punched out using a small circle punch.
