I've used this sketch by Katharina before and for some reason I just keep turning the sketch into a money/voucher card each time!
It's a regular square card:

but I've turned part of the sketch into a flap so that it lifts to reveal the hidden pocket bit for the money/voucher:
This Charlie, plus others will be available this coming Friday (the 4th) and all us Whiff of Joy DT will be giving you previews of them all this week (links to my fellow DT teamies and the shop where you can view all cards in the gallery are on the right of my blog)Don't you just love him? He's perfect for older boy cards I think. Hence I've not added any frilly embellishments and kept it to quite clean bold colours but I couldn't hold back on the sparkle as it is a christmas card! Paper is from DCWV christmas wishes pack and have just used some brown cardstock for the cardbase and the embossed strip down the side. Only other thing I've used is my circle nesties to cut out the circles as didn't think it needed much else. The cute little sentiment has been cut out with my SU word window punch and came with my stamp, isn't it fab?!
Ooo, just had the rest of my DT stamps land on my door today and they are GORGEOUS, just wait till you see them all! Think Katharina's going to be one busy bee this coming weekend :)
