One last card



for World Cardmaking Day! I created this card for 2 challenges. The movie for inspiration at Cinema Saturday Creative Challenge is Mrs. Doubtfire. This is a funny movie but I went for the more serious side. I like Daniel's speech at the end of the movie about how family can be different like the parents being divorced but they are still family. The requirement was to make a pocket or a surprise element to your card. I had this iron on velvet house for a long time. I ironed it on the cream cardstock and added lace. The burgundy paper is ran through the Swiss Dots Cuttlebug folder. If you swing it to the side, you get some good advice about families from 7Gypsies.I used the sketch from the Inspirational Card Sketches.. This was fun to make. Thanks for stopping by!
