I made this card for my dad and totally forgot to post it - what the heck?! I mean how could I forget?! My dad played in the Nelson Pipe Band all my life; we grew up listening to the bagpipes and two of my brother joined the band (one piper one drummer) so I had to have this Laddie from
TGF!
The image is stamped with memento's ink and coloured with copics. The DS paper is from Basic Greys Joival collection. I added some black rhinestones on his jacket and metal on this hat (that's so not what it's called!!) to finish the card off.
I hand delivered this card to my dad in the fall - he thought it was fantastic. When I was a kid I didn't think I liked the pipe band music, but now when I hear the pipes anywhere my foot starts tapping!
Thanks for stopping by & have a great day
