Let's go fly a kite

Yes, it's me again! Because it's Friday it's also time for a new challenge over at Totally Papercrafts. We had some great entries last week and congratulations to the winner!
Our lovely Susan has chosen the challenge for this week - For a child.  So a nice easy challenge for everyone! We're sponsored this week by Meljen's Designs and the winner will receive 4 digis of their choice!
So, then the hard part! I had to decide what stamp I would use for a child. After much faffing I decided on this one!

Isn't he just the cutest? I love this little boy from Mo's Digital Pencil, he's so adorable! 
I've coloured him with promarkers, copics and pencils.

The yellow backing paper is from K&Co and the patterned green paper is from a FunkyHand cd, 'Wishes & Kisses'.  I hand-cut the bunting (note to self: must get a die to do this!) and it's 'strung' on twine. The sentiment stamp is from Whimsy, with the ticket die to match. I've distressed all the edges and then stitched for extra definition! So a fairly simple card but I was quite pleased with the overall effect. I just hope a child would like it too lol! 
So do pop over to Totally Papercrafts and have a look at the fantastic creations from the Design Team! 
Back soon,
Kim x 

I'm entering this card into the following challenges:-
Inky Impressions - for a child
Whimsy Inspiration - anything goes
Craft Room Challenge - childhood memories
Stamp and Create - anything goes

  26. Hi, your card is gorgeous, but as our Childhood Memories theme is a "no digi" one, it won't be eligible for our random draw or top 3. Hope to see you next time. Maria x
