Nephew's 11th Birthday

The brief from my sister was - something Minecraft or GTA5 (grand theft auto!!) themed.  Oh dear I don't like boys cards! 

I did Minecraft last year so thought I'd investigate the GTA idea.  Unfortunately I know absolutely nothing about these games.  A quick google didn't initially help.  After some searching the only thing I could come up with was to use the box cover as a starting point. 
After searching for a suitable free font this is what I came up with:
 

The second card I used a digi stamp (from digisparkle) coloured with copics and gel pen.  The card base was stamped with a  Visible Image background stamp and coloured with distress inks.

Get Well Card

This card was for a friend from work who had a baby in the summer but has been unwell recently and was in hospital last weekend suffering from scepticemia.  Really hope she's up and about soon.

This card uses a fab image from Birds Cards.  I have coloured it in with Copics and mounted on some papermania textured card and paper from Melody Ross, Lydia collection. 

I have also used some paper flowers and candi coloured, both coloured with my copics.
