Olo!
Oh man, has it been nice here! We hit the low 80's yesterday and it was just a beautiful weekend! Luckily the nights still are cooling down quite a bit, just how I like it. Perfect May weather!
So I suppose it isn't any surprise that I couldn't stay away from that Summer Fresh paper for very long. Though this time I wanted to make a cute boy card with that great denim looking print. Talk about easy peasy... one of the 4x6 panels and some plaid in the background and most of the work was done for me again. All I had to add was a stamped sentiment on one of the 'tags' and a sprinkling of buttons for embellishment.
The stamps are a bit different for me because that little boy and his pup actually come from an October Afternoon set rather than my usual go-to stamp companies. I loved them as soon as I saw peeks of them last year and couldn't wait to get my hands on them. And once I got the set I did use a couple of the sentiments and I think one of the birds but all of the main images sat unloved. Sadness! But this card remedied that situation and eventually I will get the little girl on a card too. :)
Ok, work beckons and I must bid you adieu... hugs!

I love this Amy. it is hard to find a cute card for boys; this is one.
Amy this is too cute and it so reminds me of my youngest Nephew. He is just like his daddy (my baby brother) only with red hair. He is a sweetheart, but he is all boy. lol.... I can so see why you used this paper it is just fantastic! Hope you had a great day at work. We are all headed back to work and school in the am and Maddie isn't any happy about that. Hugs, Lisa
What a fabulous card! The border of patterns and plaid are a nice touch!
