Today sees our eldest son start a new job. When he was a child we nearly lost him twice due to his brittle asthma. Since he's been working he has vowed to "give back" to the NHS for them saving his life twice. This will be his third job in an NHS Trust.
For my card I have used my Creative Crafting World Meercat Madness For the Boys CD. I have used a topper sheet, three different backing papers and an insert for the CD.
On one of the backing papers I have used two of my texture stamps to stamp on a checked and a harlequin texture to tie in with the topper.
I have finished the card off quite simply with a computer generated sentiment, seam binding ribbon, organza ribbon, lots of die-cut stars and a button.

Congratulations to your son and I'm sure he'll love his card. I know someone who likes meercats so she would like this card although she doesn't like to see them dressed in clothes. Thanks for joining in with the challenge.

Great card Kym. A winner for me as I love Meerkats. If a wild animal could be a pet I would have some Meerkats. They are fascinating. I admire your son Kevin for his work ethics.
Thank you for sharing with us.
