.... Morning! My great nephew - Nico-Lewis - was 5 years old on Tuesday and I had lots of fun making a special birthday card for him:
Stamps: C&9 - All the Birthdays, Birthday Stacks; My Mind's Eye - Boy Crazy; The Greetery - Pinwheel Party Stamps
Inks: Gina K - Applemint, Key Lime, Sea Glass, Turquoise Sea, Blue Lagoon; Versafine Claire - Nocturne
Accessories; White Card; The Greetery - Pinwheel Party Stencils; Lakeland - Die cut Number; Copic Markers; SU Card - Pear Pizzazz
I'm submitting this card to Never-Before-Used-Schtuff - NBUS#33. While I shared cards yesterday made with the Pinwheel suite, this was the first card I used them on!!
I used shades of blue and green to create the pinwheel garland at the top of the card. I stamped the robot directly on to the card and also onto a scrap of white card. I coloured the one on scrap with Copic markers and cut out the head and body and adhered them to the card. I stamped a bold birthday greeting and finished by adding a large silver number 5. Inside the card, I cut a mat layer of green card and on the white panel I added a birthday greeting along with some stars and circles.
I know that Nico has received this card and had a wonderful birthday with his mum and dad, and his friends. That's all for now. Off to have my hair cut now!
AW! He'll love this bright and cheery Robot Deborah.

ReplyDeleteI can just imagine Nico's eyes light up when he saw your awesome card, Deborah! It's perfect for a five-year old, especially with that big personalized number 5, and I love how you made the pinwheel garland! Thank you for inspiring everyone at NBUS! Holiday Hugs, Darnell
