Holding on to my blanket

I had a lovely time in Great Yarmouth yesterday, especially shopping at Craftmania with 20% of everything. I am now the proud owner of a Grand Calibur, an early Birthday pressy, as you will know if you read yesterday's post. I bought a few other goodies too. My card today was made with paper from the Fairyopolis CD from Crafter's Companion and a Popcorn stamp. I used Core'dinations card and an embossing folder and sanded and tore for a distressed look. The corners were cut with a Sizzix die.

Challenges:
Creative Card Crew Anything Goes
DYSU Boys or Men
2 Sisters Boys and their toys
Here Come the Boys Brown and orange
The Crafty Pad Distressing and tearing

Apologies for lack of commenting but Hubby isn't working and we are off out and about this week.
