Doodled Patchwork Birthday Card

This card measures 6ins x 6ins and is made using a Hobbycraft pre-scored card blank.
Doodled Patchwork Birthday Card
It’s been years since I think I’ve done a doodled card and this one came about because I needed a quick and simple idea, but because of my missing mojo I’ve found myself relying far too much on a random alphabet letter card of late and I this time I knew I had to pull my finger out.

I started with square piece of card, cut a little smaller than the card blank, adding an arrangement of punched, patterned paper circles and leaves and a handwritten dotty style greeting, using a black fine liner pen.

Then using the same pen I proceeded to doodle on and between the shapes which I found really relaxing and absorbing.

Very simple and not a lot to it I know ……. but it served it’s purpose.

I really like this, even if you hadn't doodled the circles on their own work really well too.
