nothing fancy…..

but it’s STAMPED!

I borrowed this Do the Hula stamp set from my most rockin’ SIL (extra hugs and prayers that girl is holding together a LOT right now…..) to make some invites (that I still plan on posting) While I had it, I figured I’d use it! So I made this card for my cousin for his birthday/going away. He is being deployed in a few weeks, and his wife is preggers!!! Hubby snapped the photo for me, ‘cuz you know I finished it 3 minutes before we had to leave….

The base is Close to Cocoa, I also used Old Olive and Buckaroo Blue (awesome color combo) and some naturals vanilla cs. The boards and girls are stamped in close to cocoa and the HB in buckaroo. I used aquapainters and my ink pads to color the boards buckaroo, olive and real red. Highlited the girls with my prismacolors….pretty cool card.

My 8 year old nephew – the absolute coolest boy in the world is being prepped for surgery as I type. He broke his elbow last weekend, and he is having pins put in. He’s been freaking out about the surgery.The poor guy will be in an arm cast all summer, which is not going to be fun, considering we’ve already been hitting highs of 108-110 degrees! Anyhow, if you’re looking to send a little boy a hope you’re feeling better card, email me and I’ll give you an address. Here’s the cutie pie rockin’ his "faux-hawk" at Chuck E Cheese on his birthday…. I swear I hope my boys grow up to be as thoughtful, helpful and caring as he is!
