Imaginisce Monthly Challenge - and my hot scrap assistant's plan!

LOVE anything Imaginisce, including their fun blog challenge at the moment. Sketch challenge in threes. 3 papers, 3 colours, 3 embellishments. 

PLUS - just for fun I challenged myself to use 3 of my Imaginisce tools to make it happen!
 Jack's birthday is coming up. I was lucky enough to be invited by his mum into the labour ward and I helped deliver him 2 years ago. It is a precious moment in time I could never forget.  So this card was made with so much love, because every time I think of him, it makes my heart flutter with memories of that day.

I cracked open my i-bond for the very first time and I must say... I LOVE that little light and the fact there is no cord. So many times I knew that my glue gun would work best but was stifled by unpacking it, plugging it in, sitting close enough to a wall with a socket... NOW I'm FREE!!!!


So I used my i-rock to make subtle little highlights and I used my i-top to make a brad as the centre of the not-so-subtle bow.

I used the DinoRoar set of papers from Imaginisce (Before I saw Erin Bassett's wonderful DT card I swear - I can not believe how similar they are and I did not see it before I made mine, I promise!) Creative minds think alike!

Then I used the i-bond to glue on the bow over thread covered wire, which I i-bonded to the dinosaur and the wild sign. 

I love the way it looks in the light at night, casting a giant T-rex shadow on my wall.

Jacob, my hot scrap assistant did not like the experience much, surrounded in my pink pretties! 

He'd prefer to fix motorbikes and chase a few vampires. So he told me all about his little plan for a very fun blog hop... stay tuned to my blog. In a few days and will be revealed!!!
