DIGISTAMPS 4 JOY - A NEW CHALLENGE!

Over at Digistamps 4 Joy, we have just announced Challenge #35, and we're making
ONE FOR THE BOYS 
in our lives this time.

Create a papercraft project that is suitable for a boy or a man - it can be for any occasion whatsoever!

If you enter a papercraft project into the inlinkz below, using a non-Digistamps 4 Joy image, you will get one entry into the random draw.

BUT

If you use a Digistamps 4 Joy image on your entry, you triple your chances of winning .... you get THREE entries into the random draw! Now isn't that a bonus!?!

One random winner will be chosen (random.org) to win 3 images of choice from the store.

We will then have a DT's choice award. This award will go to the card / project that we vote to be our favourite (and must be a digistamps4joy image). This winner will receive a $6 gift voucher to spend in the store. We hope that there will be an entry (or two) using a Digistamps 4 Joy image, as there wasn't one in the previous challenge.

You do not need to use a Digistamps4Joy image to win, but we’d love it if you do!
We will choose 2 runners-up who we feel deserve a spot in the top 3.

Challenge Rules
You can use any image for the challenges. See above.
You have two weeks to enter the challenge.
You may enter a maximum of three (3) entries per DIGISTAMPS 4 JOY challenge.
Your entry must be new. No backlinking to previous posts.
Please link back to Digistamps 4 Joy blog.
Projects that do not follow the theme will not be entered into the draw.
Please use the Inlinkz to link to your CARD/ PROJECT only, please don't link to your entire blog.
You may combine this challenge with other challenges.
If you don't have a blog then please load your card/project into the gallery on the website, and link to that.

The most important rule, however, is to have fun!
My creation for your inspiration is a Valentine's card, which could also be a birthday card, as the sentiment makes no mention of Valentine's Day.  It would have been perfect for my DAD, as he celebrated his birthday on 14 February, and this year would have been his 81st birthday.  Sadly he only saw 67 birthdays - I miss you DAD - Happy Birthday to my DAD, My Super Hero!
The Digistamps 4 Joy image I used is called "Super Hero" from the Digistamps 4 Joy store HERE.  
This is one of the images I designed for the store early last year (2011) and I love the youthful look he has.  I made a pop - up card, with the sentiment on the outside and the image on the inside, matted onto a diecut heart.

I hope you will be able to play along too, and to enter your creation, click HERE  to link to the challenge blog.

i'D LIKE TO ADD THIS CARD TO THE FOLLOWING CHALLENGES:
Happy Birthday for 14 Feb, DAD, I love you, I miss you!
The image is much older than 6 months old, and there are two hearts on my project
The heart on the inside of the card is a diecut
