You are so....

Hello there!  I've made this cute card for my niece and nephew's recently adopted twin boy.  He's eight years old, so I hope he loves this dino card.  I'd forgotten how cute some of the die cuts on the Create a Critter cart are.  The finished card is just 4 x 4 so a perfect size for a kid :-)

Lawn Fawn Reveal Wheel - Square base die
Lawn Fawn Sentiments stamps
brad
pop dots
Misti
Recollections - Cheeky Modern Pop (6x6) - all patterned papers
Cuttlebug - Mesh embossing folder
Create A Critter Cricut cart - Dino, tree @ 1 3/4"

Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a wonderful day!

Stuffed File Folder

Hello there!  I've created a stuffed file folder for a swap that I'm in over on the FB group Flipbook Swapping and More.  Our theme was Summertime.  I've used a file folder, cut down to 8" in width.  I then covered it in patterned papers and then decided to stitch the sides for added strength.  I love how it came out!  I stuffed it full of stamps, stickers, bling, die cuts and even a tiny mini heart album that she can decorate herself :-)  I hope she loves it!!

Front with envelope pocket.

Back with bottom pocket.
