Oh Boy!!
7:52 AM

I had fun making a couple of boyish cards the other day using Things That Go from Lizzie Anne Designs. As I'm sure you're aware, I'm a bit of a girly girl and I don't make a lot of boy stuff! So it's a bit of a challenge for me. And you know how I love a challenge!!
So I pulled out some Basic Grey paper, called Oh Baby Boy! that has been sitting on my shelf for a while, and drew on the colours from the patterned paper. For the first one I used the skateboard image and my large oval punch. The card base is Brocade Blue with Green Galore for matting. I added some velvet orange brads, some orange grosgrain ribbon and tore the bottom of the papers. I added the sentiment and paper pierced a couple of rows of holes at the bottom.

For the second card, I used the schoolbus image. The card base is Apricot Appeal with Brocade Blue for matting and a piece of Green Galore across the center. I used my new EK Success border punch across the bottom (and it works great by the way). I added some green brads in the top corners, added some polka dot ribbon and pop dotted the image.
I just love the bright, springy colours in these designs! I know exactly who to send them to, too!
Well, I'm off this morning but working this afternoon and evening. AND all day tomorrow. Blech. Hope you have a great weekend!!!
