Purple Star

Hello from NY C! Just remembered that I needed to post this card forThe Male Room and I went on holiday without doing it. So, this is going to be short! The theme for our new challenge is Stars and of course it needs to be for a male. I made this card with my son, Fred, in mind. He just passed his A Levels, the final exams in school, and has been accepted to study Bioveterinary Science at Liverpool University. It was touch and go as he has not been well for the last six months or so and I am so happy for him, that he has achieved the next stage of his goal, so the sentiment is perfect.


The idea for the card comes from a fellow DT member at 52 CCT and you can see it as a Christmas card. I thought it would work well for this occasion and so this is unashamedly cased from Patricia, at Thinking Of Inking with permission, of course.
