Chris's Birthday Card

It's my brother's, Chris, birthday in about a week and a bit and so I thought I'd better get on and make him a card. This download from Pollycraft suits him really well since he likes nothing more than to slump in front of the box (TV) at times. Even better though, is that all the money from this download goes to YAA (Yorkshire Air Ambulance). There are more details on this lady's blog, who is trying to raise money for YAA in memory of her father. I think it is such a incredible thing to do and I'm sure her father would be very proud if he knew.I will also enter the card into this weeks I love Promarkers challenge, because I have used their sketch. I have made a swing type card for the first time- I saw the card blanks to buy in a catalogue and had a go at making it myself- not sure I have got the dimensions right, but I will try it agian another time.
