TARDIS Card

It was Josh's 10th Birthday on Friday and I decided, as he's Doctor Who mad, that I would make him a TARDIS card. After trawling pictures on the Internet for hours and not being able to find a photo of the TARDIS square on I had an idea. I went and fetched Josh's TARDIS money box down from his bedroom and took a photo of it and used that for the front of the card.
For the inside I printed off a picture of the inside of the TARDIS onto normal paper to make the background then printed off photos of Josh and David Tennant as the Doctor. I love the photo of Josh because it looks like he's looking up at the Doctor. In the original he was looking up at Pluto while we were in Disneyland in Paris. Peej very kindly went round the original and took out all the background so that I could just print it out and cut round it. So it was a real joint effort.I stuck the whole lot onto a tri-fold card and then kept the inside simple with wording done on the Cricut then highlighted with white gel pen. Josh's little face when he saw it! He loved it.

Now I'll let you into a little secret.... I was pretty pleased with it myself too!!! :-)
