PANDA CARD

I have recently started nannying for 2 boys.  The older one celebrated his birthday on Friday,  The younger one wanted to make a Taekwondo panda card.  We found a teddy wearing a robe on the Teddy Bear Parade cartridge.  The background paper is Paper Studio.  The solid blue is a shaped note card I bought from Marshalls.  All other papers are scraps.
This card was created and designed by a 9 year old boy.  He loves to craft.

WARM THOUGHTS

I am making a lot of money holders for the holidays.  My friend asked for 14.  So I decided I would make 3 of everything.  Then I will have a big supply.  For this first batch I made a pink girlie one using my new dies from MCT  I am loving this new release.  The solid paper is Recollection, the polka dot and tag on the back are  from a Carta Bella set I got at the Scrabbook Expo.   The rest of the paper is scraps.  The decorative paper clip is Recollections.

BBB-BABY BOY BOX

My niece, Janessa, is having a baby boy in a few weeks.  She got a lot of cool baby items at her shower.  I thought I would give her a gift card or some money when  Gavin arrives.  BBTB2 is having a Gift box challenge.  For this box I used Wrap it Up.  I put Sook Wang double sided tape under the cutout and covered the sticky side with Crystal Glitter Ritz.  Then I used an orange Sharpie for the beak.  The bow on top and the floral label are MY CREATIVE TIME.  The onesie is a Stamps of Life die. The sentiment is Studio G.  Of course I had to embellish the bow with a Skittle from Doubleclick Connections
