The Library Challenge - The Fault In Our Stars



The new book at The Library , is The Fault In Our Stars by John Green.
11870085
I read this book last year - it's Young Adult fiction about teenage cancer survivors and it's clever and entertaining. 

For my first card (top) I was inspired by the title and the cover. At first glance it might appear to be a new baby card, but look at the sentiment..... This was a commission from my daughter who is a midwife and wanted a congratulations card for her colleague who's been promoted in the maternity department. The stork and clouds were cut on Silhouette digital cutter , the stars are a dry embossing folder and the 'shine' sentiment is from a Pinkfresh set. 

I'd like to enter:
Aud Sentiments wings 


For my second card, I was inspired by the clouds and chalkboard effect on the cover- again, all cut with Silhouette.

    That's a great book cover and your cards replicate it so well. I like the falling stars behind the stork and the fun clouds on your second card x

    I am finding the Library Challenge so exciting! I love both your cards but especially the second with the brilliant clouds and chalkboard effect. I saw this book on a display today which is a weird coincidence! Vicky x
