Skaterboy!.......


Aneurin, one of the little BoyzNextDoor, is 9 today. I made this cute card for him using freebie Pink Petticoat papers from last months Creative Cardmaking.The layout is very simple (always a good philosophy when making male cards) using two patterned papers and an embossed panel, which holds this cute little skater guy who is attached with a Papermania spring. He was cut from white textured cardstock with a blue shadow. I paper-pieced his hat, jersey and skateboard which makes him a little more dimensional. I added an 'A' to the white panel of the jersey as I didn't have room to fit the full name on the card. 'Happy Birthday' was cut from blue cardstock and adhered to a white panel which was matted with pale/dark blue cardstock. The sentiment panel was adhered with foam pads below the skater.
Carts used:
Skater boy- Car Decals
Happy Birthday- A Child's Year
Thanks for dropping by today!
