Hi there,

I'm absolutely chuffed to bits to have my blog, along with one of my cards appear in the new 'Crafting with Hunkydory'  magazine article 'Bloggers we love!'... To say I'm over the moon is an understatement!!...

Happy Name Day

Quite apt that the show is being shown on tv the now, though sad it's the final series!! Anyways here is what I created, based on his favourite 'House of Stark' ... what do you think ?

On a 7x5 black card blank, I matt and layered together gold mirror card with black/gold stripe paper. For the topper, I printed a silhouette of the 'Stark' emblem along with my sons name etc using a GOT font in black on some buff card, then layered onto black card. Finishing off with some peel off corners and scrolls...

Materials Used 
Docrafts - Papermania Spots & Stripes > Jewels paper
My Stash - Gold Mirror Card, Black Card, Mottled Buff Card and Peel Offs
