Ok this one is for Amy’s school friend who is a boy….nope NOT her boyfriend….he’s a boy, who’s a friend…at least that’s what she tells me hee hee !
I suck at boy cards, (this one is actually an adaptation of a Wishes Father’s Day card) and I am thinking this may be a little mature for an 8 year old….BUT I really love the Game On paper and I loved the effect of the silver bitty brads in the stars. Anyways when you are 8 and a boy (or girl) isn’t all about the gift and the cake and the party???? I will probably wrap the gift in the star B&T paper as well.
Cardstock: Desert Sand and Colonial White CTMH,
Patterned paper: Game On Lv 2 paper pack and My Stickease CTMH
Stamps: August SOTM It’s Your Day CTMH
Ink: Cocoa CTMH
Ribbon: Cocoa grosgrain ribbon CTMH, Brown hemp Wal-Mart
Embellies: Silver Bitty Brads CTMH, square metal rimmed tag CTMH, silver Stickles.
Thanks SO MUCH for all the wonderful comments left on my last 2 cards, it makes my day!
Today was supposed to be warm and clear with a high of 74…perfect! But after a brief appearance this morning…the sun hid and the clouds rolled in and brrrrr the wind picked up..sigh…I guess this is Iowa for you!
I hope you are all having a wonderful Thursday!!!
Enjoy!

You know, after visiting your blog as much as I do, I never noticed how much Coldplay you have on your music thingy. I love Coldplay! "The Scientist" is my favorite.
OK enough of that- I'm lovin' the card today- I'll be copying it- and when I do I'll let you know. I love the front!!! The possiblities you have unleashed in my mind with the layout is endless. Thank you so much Sarah! Love it!!!
This is a wonderful card for a boy of any age! That paper is great and Wow! for all the detail.We must be on the same wavelength this evening. I've been attempting to make a birthday card for a man and gave it up just before the frustration set in. LOL. Sounds like our weather is doing the same thing, too. I'd sure like to see a little spring before summer rolls around...
This card is awesome. Great job! Sorry I haven't left any comments lately. I've been getting ready for a yard sale :( Yuck! I'll get back in the swing of things soon though. LOL!
Sarah, I think you nailed that one. It is a great card. Like you said though 8 year old boys probably won't notice. His mom will though. The fact that his name is PRINTED in the card might make a difference.
Sarah- Love your blog. I left you a little surprise on my blog. Check it out!
I love this card! Masculine cards are so hard to do, too! You've really done a fabulous job on this!
DES MOINES????? I was just there from May 15-25th!!! LOL! Maybe next time we will have to meet! My parents live in Clive and sibs live in DSM, Ames, and Johnston... I'm the black sheep out in Utah. LOL!
