Card for Grandson's 4th birthday

I know I said I would post a gift bag and tutorial today, but......when I went to edit my photos last night they weren't very clear, so I'm going to redo them today and hopefully I will have it ready for tomorrow :)

Mum asked me to make a card for my wee nephew who lives in Australia and because she prefers to give large cards I've made this one A5.  The image is a digi from Sassy Cheryl's digis.  The paper is from a K&Co - Hopscotch paper pad I've had for ages.

I've missed entering the challenges over at Less is More so I'm joining in again :)
 It's punches/die cuts theme this week and I've punched the circles on my card.

Copic Colours
Hair & Bear - E31, E50, E.53
Skin - E00, E11, E20
T-shirt - R05,R17,R27
Trousers & Cap - B93, B95, B97
Shoes - E31, E37, E57
Cap & Patches on bear - YG91, YG95

 I doodled dots around the circles with Marina Mist Stampin' Up marker.
The sentiment is computer generated using MTF sweet cheeks and MTF playtime fonts.

I'd also like to enter this in Papertake Weekly - get krafty
and Delightful Challenges - use pattern paper.

Thanks for visiting :)
Have a lovely day!
