My oldest grandson will be 12 yrs old next week. Where did all those years go? Seems like it was only yesterday he was toddling around here playing with Postman Pat. Now the only postman he is interested in, is the one who delivers fan mail from his many girlfriends! LOL
I'm not terribly good at making cards for males as you can see. But if I send him a shop bought card he will be very hurt......so I've done my best using cuttlebug embossing folders, and an alcohol ink background I found lying on my work top. This Paperartsy stamp fits the bill because he loves watching movies. The little balloon peel offs were coloured in with gelly roll pens, then added a few drops of Diamond glaze.
I used 2 embossing folders for the blue card. Got a new *friends* cuttlebug folder last week and each word of phrase has it's own embossed outline so I cut some of the words out and fixed them on with pop dots. The words I chose are: rambunctious, happy, wonderful, unforgettable,laugh, enjoy and yippee! I also made him a chain mail bracelet but when he tried it for size, he didn't want to take it off! Can't see me doing any more chain mail, it was too fiddly and painful on my hands.
