Lego!!

My grandson will be 6 next month - where does the time go? When he was here just before we went on holiday  he said" Granny can you buy me some Lego for my birthday?" No surprise there!! He's Lego mad!  I had to make him a Lego card as I had done one back in March for his younger brother and didn't want him to feel left out.  So here's the latest version.

Lots of punching and inking! The "6" I  cut on the Cricut three times and stuck them together to raise it up. The bricks were two layers then raised up on dimensionals. I used Real Red inked with Cherry Cobbler and Daffodil Yellow inked with Crushed Curry. All snippets! The blue was also a  scrap from my box but is non SU as they don't do a suitable blue but the inking was Midnight Muse.

The inside I created on the computer (including the bricks!) I just hope he likes it, but think he might be more interested in the present! As I used lots of snippets I'm going to take it to Pixie's Snippets Playground and see what the playmates are up to while teacher's away!

You can order from my online shop at anytime  or email  if you prefer the personal touch .

Three today!!

I have seen a lot of Lego cards in blogland so I had to have a go at making one for my grandson's upcoming 3rd birthday. Both he and his older brother are Lego mad! Or at least they were when I saw them last just before Christmas. Anyway here is what I came up with. It was a bit fiddly inking all the little dots so they stood out! 

 The letters were cut out with Sizzix "Man Oh Man" dies.

 

 The inside was made with Craft Artist. I'm quite pleased with the result - what do you think? I hope young Jack likes it but suspect he'll be more interested in the parcel that goes with it!
