After making my first Never Ending Card for the Butterfly Challenge recently, I knew that this fold would be perfect for a card for my great nephew. I've made him a few cards with different folds and he always likes to work out how I made them. I set him the challenge of working out how I made this card. When I see him again next week, I'll find out if he's succeeded!
All the patterned paper was from a Dovecraft 'Blue Skies' paper pad. I used dies from The Works for the numbers.
As my great nephew lives near the coast, he often goes to the beach and is learning how to surf, so I decided on a beach theme. Apart from the number die cuts, all the dies I used are 'Cut & Make' dies and the shells are punched. I left a blank square for a handwritten birthday message.
All the navy and pale blue card was snippets, so I'll be off to share my card in the Playground. If you've never made a Never Ending Card before, Mrs A has put some really easy to follow instructions HERE.

Absolutely love it, Liz! I plan to make more too, now that I have made one. Love the beach theme!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a fun card for your nephew and it will be interesting to see if he works out how it was done. A great style of card for using up snippets.
ReplyDeleteGreat make, Liz. I'm sure your nephew will love this one and I wonder if he will figure it out?
ReplyDeleteHe'll love this. What a great card. Love the whole beach scene. I remember those surfing days. Tell him to wear sunscreen! [Bunny]`
ReplyDeleteFabulous design Liz, love the colours and theme too -trying to work out how you made it should keep your nephew quiet for a while!

ReplyDeleteHa, great minds think alike . I have sent my 10 yrs old Grsndson a Halloween Never ending card for today. I also have instructions from The Doc to make a 70yrs Birthday card for his cousin. He is going to add a note in with it saying You know your old when you can’t figure out this card. Hugs Mrs A.
