Card from freebies


We all enjoy getting a little something for nothing and some of the very talented bloggers out there are so generous with the freebie images that they offer.  I have found a couple of gems that I've used to make this card.

The black square card is smaller than I normally make at 5"x5" but I fancied a change and liked the colour.   I rounded the corners as I have rediscovered my corner chomper recently.  The beautiful image was a freebie from the very inspirational Ann Bodil's blog and can be found here.  I also love the ticket sentiment but unfortunately I can't remember where this one was from (sorry!). 




I love the little girl image and have coloured it with pro markers.  I wanted to keep this card fairly clean and simple so I added a white Nellie Snellen frame and a strip of Papermania paper with faux stitching, a little flower and a few buttons.

I am entering it into the following challenges:

Craftalicious - birthdays

Thanks for looking,

Amanda
