As You Like It Challenge

Another 2 weeks have gone by and we are nearing the end of February. I have only 1 more day of work and then I am retiring. I think tomorrow will be of mixed feelings. I will miss all of my colleagues, but I am looking forward to spending more time with my husband and of course hopefully more time to craft....

Anyway on to our challenge.

This fortnight As You Like It are sponsored  by

gif maker


This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using
your Favourite Occasion (& why).
You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.
   

I love to make cards for unusual occasions. They are a real challenge. The card I have made here is for a police passing out parade. 

I have chosen this card I made recently for a friend who couldn't find a suitable card to buy for a police passing out  celebration.
I tried to bring in the theme with the chequered border but still keep the card girly.

I used Spellbinder border, docrafts tri boss embossing folder, LOTV papers, Marianne flower dies.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:-
