This card was made by my eldest daughter Bronte who has just turned 13, for her younger sister Maddy, who turns 11 tomorrow....and has been counting sleeps forever!
Bronte and I spent some card making time together today while DH and the other two went to the movies....we had Mama Mia on and it was 'Party Central!' Well, actually it was very quiet as we worked away...
Bronte chose this Happy Hopper image (thanks to bubblefrog) and coloured it in with pencils and added bling with glitter pens. This is only Bronte's second card on the gallery, she is more of a scrapbooker really, but has made a few cards for family and does a great job (I am totally unbiased!
I have seen that even if your kids don't get enthused about your cards, they take it all in as I can see how much Bronte has progressed with her craft....Maddy is going to love this....probably at 4am in the morning - ahhhh!!!
Thank you for looking and it would be great if you could leave Bronte an encouraging comment - she would love it and be greatly encouraged!!

Oh my, Bronte, I can't color a HM image ever! I've given up to be perfectly honest. I've had to toss every one of them. I love your coloring! It's outstanding. The added blind is pretty darn special, too.

That is a really great card. I love those bunnies dancing, and you have coloured in so beautifully. I'm sure that Maddie loved it. Congratulations.

Hey Bronte, what a great card!! Love the way you did the borders and those gruffies are so cute. The flower just finishes it off perfectly! Obviously cardmaking talent runs in your family.....
