I do enjoy sending cards to Card Cupids; last month I even included 3 cards that Mom made. So I decided to make some birthday cards for boys for their March Challenge/Drive.
Critter Sketch Challenge #104 |
I was so inspired by the current Design Seeds color inspiration photo for the current Critter Sketch Challenge that I ended up making 3 cards! I raided my stash and found the perfect bits of the perfect papers.
I'm entering all three of these cards into the following challenges:
Card Cupids March Challenge/Drive: Birthday cards for boys

I'm entering this card into the following additional challenges:
Cooking It Up with Katie #90: Your 3 Favorite Things
- I adore this glittered starburst DP; I had 2 sheets that I've used up over the past 3 years. This used only little scraps!
- This is one of my favorite Boy images ever, from Tellen's Place Designs; they recently closed their doors, but there are still plenty of freebies on their site!
- Buttons: I don't use them very often, but I love them when I do! I broke my "rule" of always sewing on buttons, and just glued them onto the card after adding some faux stitching with a glitter pen.
