Birthday Wish

Hello again, what a change it is to wake up to sunshine.
Today I'm going to share with you a Birthday card that I have made for my Hubby's birthday which is in a couple of weeks time. (It's ok, he doesn't read my blog). He rather likes steam engines whether large or small as in this great Mo Manning image The Engineer. I had seen this image a long time ago and purchased it with the idea of this card. A bit of dry embossing, inking, some promarkers and embellishments and here it is......

 
 
I hope he likes it, in fact apart from the moustache this could be him, lol, don't tell him I said so :)
 
I'm entering in to the following challenges:
Scribble & Scrap - Anything Goes
A Creative Romance - Add Metal
Through The Craftroom Door - Anything Goes
Crafty Little Fairies - Anything Goes
Papertake Weekly - Sketchie Free For All #55 (flipped)
 
Have a great day crafty pals,
See you soon
