Dino-mite!

This is a quick and simple 5"x5" card that I made today. I used some yellow cardstock for the card base. I then layered it with some patterned olive green paper, cut 1/8" smaller than the card base. I cut a strip of striped red carstock at 4 7/8"x1 3/4" and then used an EK Success border punch on the bottom edge. I cut some dark green polka dotted paper at 4 3/4"x1"and layered it on the striped red cardstock. The dinosaur is cut from Dinosaur tracks. I stamed the sentiment, which is from Scrappy Mom's, on some yellow cardstock and matted it with some red cardstock. I used pearlescent ivy ink by Tsukineko. Perfect birthday card for a little boy.

I made this for the following challenges:

  1. My son would "roar" for this card. He's 5 and LOVES dinosaurs. I don't know why I don't have this cart! He's say, "Mom you need that one!" He's my biggest enabler. Lol! Thanks for the nice comment on my blog! BTW have you checked out my 100 follower giveaway? Hop on over, it's a goodie!
