I'm thrilled to be posting this project for Exploring Cricut.
The story for this card starts with the fact that I have 5 nephews from age 2 to age 9. That means I always need 5 of everything and all boy related... and birthdays are starting up again. Five sets of boy cards can be a challenge. Here is what I came up with for my youngest. I wanted to use plenty of blue and primary colors... (a touch of pink never hurt a boy). I used "boy" themed sentiment paper (scraps) and and added the blue dot border from The Paper Studio, Basics stack. Then, I cut the banner from the Cricut Birthday Bash cartridge and dusted the banner with glitter. I recreated the bird to place over the sentiment (mat in blue) and added the orange dimensional balloon (stash) to finish it up.

ReplyDeleteReally like the banner with the bird on it-it's just so cute! Great colors, too!
ReplyDeleteI have all boys and have learned you have to squeeze in some pink here and there too! So cute-he will love this. I love this cut on Birthday Bash too-one of my faces.
