A few weeks ago we drove down to my daughter's home in Indiana to celebrate Labor Day and my youngest grandson's second birthday. Elisha LOVES trains, so I made him this card.
To make this card, I used a retired Stampin' Up! set "Circus Train". This is just the cutest set! I love all the images in this set, so I had to enlarge the card just so I could use all of them. I stamped all the images separately, colored them in, and popped them up on dimensionals. I hand drew the train tracks. I stamped the "Toot, Toot!" directly onto the card using a alphabet stamp set. The happy birthday is a die cut made with an MFT die. I cut two "happy birthday"'s out so I could create a shadow. The clouds are an MFT die too. I popped the clouds up on dimensionals too.
And here are some photos and a video of Elisha's sweet little birthday party. He didn't know what to think of his flaming piece of cake. And his favorite gift of all was the motorcycle. He said "Cool!" when he saw it. 😂
Have A Great Day! Amy

ReplyDeleteThank you. Yes, he did, except he tried to take the train portion off the card right away because it was popped up on dimensionals.

ReplyDeleteThank you! Right before he received the card, he got some books where you lift things off to see what's underneath them, so I think when he saw the popped up train he thought it would lift off too.
DeleteSuch a cute card! It looks like he had a blast on his birthday. Thank you for sharing it with us at Crazy Little Love Birds link party #9. Always a pleasure having you join us! :)
