CARDS for KIDS

 You may be aware that I have been trying to make as many birthday cards as I can, to get ahead on the 'demands'.  There are quite a lot of birthdays in the first 6 months of the year.  What is that about?! 

Let's check out some of the cards I've made for the little 'ns. 


The cake stamp is coloured using Ohuhu Alcohol markers
and popped up using a mini wobble spring.  So much fun. 
The background was made using dye inks on my gel press with some circle die cuts. 
I made the smaller circles using silver and white pigment ink through a stencil. 
Sentiment and cake image are from MFT.  




This one is a faux shaker card! 
I started making a shaker, but after not one, but two
acetate disasters and sequins all over the floor, I opted for a faux on instead! 
It still looks really cool and has so much shine!  
The camera really doesn't do it justice. 


This gatefold card has a fun ink smooshed background on the front. 
Glitter cardstock for the circle and 10. 
Inside, a cute ginger cat (looks just like my niece's) with glitter balloons.
There is room on the side flaps for personal messages. 



Of course, kids cards can be simpler.  
This one is just a stunning rainbow sentiment slapped on a striped background. 
It's bright and fun. It's also in the stash and ready to pull out whenever a kid's birthday sneaks up on me! 

Have a great week everyone!
