Only Fools And Horses

Last week I had a lady ask me if I would make a 65th Birthday card for her husband, after saying yes, she says "he loves Only Fools and Horse's and anything to do with Del-boy". So earlier this week I sat at the PC and googled images and found this lovely one (actually I found a couple, but liked this one best). I made a backing paper by cropping a picture of the Trotters van and in my photo editing program made it a seamless tile. Then I took it into MCS and made a backing paper by tiling the workspace. I then faded it, so it didn't over power the card. I re sized the image also in MCS before mounting onto some mirri card. I cut out the name and age on the Cricut using silver mirri and black card. She hasen' seen it yet so I'm hoping that she will like it.



Thanks for taking the time to look and your kind comments which are always appreciated.

Well done for finding that great image - looks to me as if it just fits the bill. Clever to make the matching backing paper to tie in with it.
