Reach for the Stars - Birthday Card

-
Today, I have a card that I made for my nephew.  It's hard to believe that he turned 5!  This was so much fun to make.

I used the rocket from Imagine More Cards for the front of my card.  K & Co "Hopscotch" provided the perfect patterned paper and the red really makes it pop.  I finished it off on the inside using the  K. Andrew Design's "Of Mice and Lil' Men" stamp set and and more of the paper for the trim.  The brads are from Basic Grey and coordinate with the "Life of the Party" set.  I think it's perfect for a 5 year old, don't you?


Thanks so much for watching and have a great day!

Welcome to my little contribution to the Operation Write Home Blog Hop.  I am so happy that you stopped by today.  This is the first time that I've participated in an OWH Blog Hop, but I have hopped to other blogs during these hops before.  I can't wait to see all the inspiration out there. Today, I have chosen the Bonus Sketch #12 to use with this hop.  It is a sketch that my daughter chose to have me make her thank you notes for graduation before I even knew the hop details.  What perfect timing!  Be sure to scroll down to the previous post for a full tutorial and to see my daughter's thank you note.  Same technique and sketch, but a totally different card. I used the following supplies: Operation Write Home Bonus Sketch #12 K and Company - Ancestry.com paper Memento Tuxedo Black ink OWH / Hero Art stamp Stampendous - Happy Messages stamp set Thanks so much for stopping by today. Remember to take some time to enjoy the little things.  Have a
