My card today is for the challenge over at Crafty Ann's which is to make a card for Someone Special. This card is for my neighbour to give to her Great Grandson Rylee who will be 5 at the end of this month. He is getting a Nintendo DS along with a Super Mario Game from his Mum and Dad, so I went along to Ann's Digi Shop and bought one of her latest designs, the games console which looks exactly like a DS. I then did some Googling and came up with the Mario Pictures. I took all these images into Paint Shop Pro and married them all together. I left the console white and just coloured in the controls. I used foam tape to lift the lid of the console and then mounted the image onto a nestie circle. The bp is DCWV and just called The Stack.
I really enjoyed making this card and am really pleased with the way it turned out. Thank you for visiting my blog and for all the wonderful comments you leave. Beryl x

Beryl this is fantastic. I would never have thought of Googling and then putting in those images. Brilliant idea - not to mention being clever in Paint Shop. Great easel design too. This little chap is going to be so happy on his birthday.
