Another Challenge - Boy Birthday


ETA: DUH! Forgot to load the pic the first time. Sorry, I was tired!

Here's the card I created for the older brother of the birthday boys. Tomorrow is their party and I just have to wrap the gifts and we are all set to go! This card uses all the same supplies as the previous post, except the main image is SU! Toy Box and the blue is a different shade of scrap. I seriously have enough scraps to last me the rest of the year. But who can resist all those new pretty papers?

I'm honestly not thrilled with the outcome, but DS was clingy today and I couldn't concentrate with him nagging at me to play with him. I know, I should have just played with him, but I was on a mission to complete this card. He got more excited when I let him pierce the card for the brads! Soon he'll be using the crop-a-dile without me, too!

As a sketch, I used the sketch from the Hanna Stamps challenge, posted by Beth. It can be found here. I like the sketch, I just feel it needs some ribbon and boys don't like ribbon, do they? And again, this is an entry for a bonus bingo number for Barb.

Well, off to enjoy the quiet before I need to go to bed. I might be back later with another card. I have a stack that I haven't shared yet.

Thanks for looking!

I just knew this would be a terrific card, Melissa. The last two cards make me think of my grandsons. TFS.
