This has been made for the young lad Marcus who lives next door to me. According to his Dad - who I questioned most carefully - Marcus is Space and Astronaut mad. I think he is 6 - not too sure. Stupidly I forgot to ask.
This is the insert:
I used the MCS programme to make the square image with the blurred edge on which to write the greeting.
The stitch pattern is a download from Stitchcards.com. The die cut cards and mats are from a set purchased from The Art of Craft and are designed to look like postage stamps etc. They are by John Next Door. The sentiment was made using a die cut and my ACDSee graphics programme.
The background was gathered from the internet. I enjoyed making this. It is an 8" x 8" so I can deliver it personally.
p.s. I have discovered two things since I posted this. No: 1 - read things properly the first time. No: 2 what I thought was an Astronaut is actually called a Robot by Stitchcards. I think he looks like an Astronaut and I am not going to tell Marcus - if you don't.
