Project Tuesday View Master

Despite still being a little poorly (got a bad cough & cold this past week) I took a break from the busy-ness of this weekend and finally made my PT project.  This week it is certainly an interesting one - a 'view master' style card - remember those?  You can find instructions here and here's my effort this week.

I intended to make this for my eldest grandson's b'day but as it's looking quite youngish I now think I might have to hang on to it for my younger one's b'day next August!  He's just had this years - typical huh?

I doubt I would've tried this technique unless it was a challenge project but I'm very glad I did.  Kaleb will have fun with this and he'll be surprised when he finds out Grandma DID make it!

I clearly didn't need to cut out the space for his fingers to grab the inner disk as I added a ribbon tag but I did it anyway.  Wasn't thinkin straight - sorry.

I only created a couple of texts for my window as I went against the grain and used an oval punch instead of the circle one.  I would suggest you use a circle punch as the oval takes a bit more thinkin through - clearly I didn't do that - DER!  I am amazed I managed to get it to work at all as I didn't follow the directions one bit LOL!  I am still poorly - leave me be.

Even so I still managed to find time to decorate up the insides real quick and i might just decorate up the back for himn as well just for added fun.

Since Kaleb's b'day is in summer I might try to suggest mummy does another party in the park so we can have a baseball theme - my card will be extra perfect then huh!

Stop on over to Project Tuesday and check out the other gals creations.  Then click on the link to see the video tutorial for this week and have a go yourself.  Sarah was super sweet and provided even more links to make this week's project.  Shame I didn't take more notice of them all tho' huh?
