Happy 6th Birthday!

Hello!
I hope everyone had a great weekend!  We had a nice long weekend in Canada and we finished up by celebrating my oldest son's 6th birthday today!

I'm sure you all know how much my sweet boy LOVES Lego!  We eat, sleep and breathe Lego here!  I could not, not make a Lego card for him!!!

What started out as an idea in my head turned into a lot of work!  Those pesky little circles took a lot of work to glue on.  Trust me!  Caleb is worth every second of that work though!

My babe had a great birthday and loved getting lots of Lego cards!!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a great week!

Supplies:
Cardstock: Basic Black, Whisper White, Daffodil Delight, Pacific Point, Real Red
Stamps: Loved Ones
Ink: Basic Black
Other: Square Lattice Embossing Folder, Dimensionals

Birthday Lego (again...)

Hello!
I hope everyone had a great day!  Friday has arrived finally!  If you're like me, when you hit Friday you breathe a huge sigh of relief!

Today's card is very simple but will have a HUGE effect on the recipient (who happens to be my soon to be 6 year old)!

My dad requested a card for my oldest who is turning 6 in just over a week (how can that be?  Wasn't he just born yesterday?).  Well, I'm sure you remember me saying once or twice that Caleb LOVES Lego.

I was having a hard time thinking of yet another Lego card BUT then it hit me...why not make a giant Lego block for him!  It's simple but he'll love it.

Supplies:
Cardstock: Pacific Point, Whisper White
Stamps: Loved Ones
Ink: Basic Black, Pacific Point
Other: 1 3/4" Circle Punch, Dimensionals

Mojo Flowers

 Hello!
Sorry for not getting my Mojo Monday card up yesterday!  The sketch stumped me and I can honestly say this card isn't at all what I envisioned when I started and it didn't turn out as I had planned.  I attempted a few times to turn it into what I wanted but unfortunately it didn't quite work out.

Anyhow, you can check out the current Mojo Monday sketch here.
I have seen some amazing cards posted on the Mojo Monday website this week - there sure are some amazing card makers out there!

Supplies:
Cardstock: Island Indigo, Whisper White, Pool Party, Rich Razzleberry
DSP: Summer Smooches
Stamps: Loved Ones
Other: Summer Smooches Fabric Brads, Boho Blossoms Punch, Scalloped Circle Punch, Silver Brads, Dimensionals

Freshly Made Sketches and Lego!

 Hello!
So thankful that it is almost the weekend!  I have just picked up some paper to start on some wedding invitations so the weekend is going to be invitation central here!  Not sure how many cards will get done!

Anyhow, I wanted to do up a card for the Freshly Made Sketches challenge this week!  I really liked Jennifer's sketch this week and when I see blocks now I think only one thing....LEGO!  My oldest son is going to have a Lego birthday party this year for his 6th birthday so I decided to work ahead and make a great card for his little brother to give him!

I also wanted to give the Loved Ones stamp set a try.   This stamp set is in the Stampin' Up! Occasions Mini Catalogue!

Supplies (for my Lego card):

Cardstock:  Pacific Point, Basic Black, Whisper White, Real Red, Daffodil Delight

Stamps: Loved Ones

Ink: Pacific Point, Daffodil Delight, Real Red, Basic Black

Other: 1/2" Circle Punch



The card below is one my mom made for my oldest son for Valentine's Day!  My mom is so creative!  Caleb's eyes lit up when he saw this card.  He was so happy!  Lego cards are so fun and they can really delight a little person's heart so much!  Thanks so much mom!!!  Caleb sure loves you!
