"Boys, boys, boys, make something for a boy - baby, child, teen or man"
Well, this was perfect timing, DS has to go to a little pal's birthday party tomorrow, so a card was needed anyway.
And here it is:
I would have liked to put some more embellishments (buttons or brads, maybe) on it, but I have a rule not to use much of my precious stash on cards for all the parties DS goes to, when he's older and there are less parties I'll be a bit less stingy!!!! I drew and cut out the number 8 from a pizza box - so that was free - and so was the string!!!
The prize on PaperPlay this week is from The Crafty Alley - it's the Lillian Collection from Crate Paper. I love their paper - used some from the Static range for this card.
We were in Edinburgh at the weekend, hence no other crafting - must get my skates on and do more stuff!!!
Thanks for looking!

Dear Julie, I occasionally landed on your blog and like what I see here. You do wonderful artwork! And so I will make a visit again on your place from time to time to see what's new.
Love from Switzerland,

Hi Julie,
I love this card and think that any more embellishement would ruin the boyish 'ruggedness' of it.
Lucky you going to Edinburgh. Why do I suspect that a trip to a craft shop might be part of the agenda!
Hope you are enjoying summer. Best wishes, Carol x
What a fun fab boy card! Love the corregated 8 :)
It will be the coolest card in James' mantelpiece.
Love that "8".
great card Julie and love the pizza box idea, well done

I agree Manly cards are a bit tougher for me too!
Hope you have a Great Day!
