Cards for Kids

 I decided it was time for me to send my grandson a card and of course, need to send the Princess on too!

For my grandson, I made this one

A while back I made some masks for a lady from work.  She purchased some patterned material... Spiderman, Buzz Lightyear and baby Yoda...there were a few scraps left over so I saved them.  So for this one for Archie, I glued the fabric to some card and then fussy cut Spiderman.   I searched the internet to find the web which I printed onto my card.  I used the computer to add the sentiment and glue Spiderman onto the card. 

For Princess Grace, I decided on a Unicorn as she loves watching My Little Pony.

I did some ink blending with Distress Oxides for my background.  Did a little stenciling with water to make the stars and spirtzed water on the lower portion.   I found this cute image on the internet.  I printed and fussy cut.   It was pre-coloured so just added Nuvo glitter gel all over it with my finger.  The die cut was made with some scrap blended piece in my box of bits.  I picked up the un-named die from a local stationery store for a couple of dollars.   Just finished with some little sub sentiments. 

And I got a commissioned card for a  5 year old boy.... so my Buzz Lightyear scrap of material came into play.  

I started by adding lots of colours to some mixed media paper and then adding black to make the galaxy background.  I splattered some white acrylic paint.  The sentiment was gold embossed and I added Buzz and added the name cut from gold card.   I matted the galaxy panel onto the some of the gold card.    Inside I printed " Happy 5th Birthday.  Hope it's out of this world"  

Fun times making these.   Our Princess loved her card and had it with her when she visited on Saturday.
