Birthday Cards for the Kiddos

 Hello Friends ... HAPPY MONDAY!!

Over the weekend I had a lot of fun creating birthday cards for the ladies ... the guys ... and also for the kiddos.  I've had some puffy stickers and fun background papers hanging around just waiting for me to get busy creating so here ya go ...

I've had this 12x12 sheet of Lego paper in the drawer for several years now.  I was going to create a tissue box cover from it but since I was in the mood to make kids cards I decided to use HALF of it and create these two cards.  Any kid ... boy or girl ... loves legos & Mickey so I also grabbed the puffy stickers off the pegboard. 

The center squares and rectangles are extras I've been saving along the way and thought the primary colors were PERFECT for my sentiment panel.

SPEAKING OF MICKEY ...

I also discovered a couple 12x12 sheets of Mickey & Minnie that I knew would make cute kids birthday cards so here are a few more for the kiddos . . .

Once again, using up left over cuts, I created this fun sentiment panel & added a 3d Mickey puffy sticker.  The yellow Happy Birthday die cut pieces didn't 'jump out' enough for me, so I took a fine tip black marker and first did 'faux stitching' inside the letters ... still not enough so I connected the stitching and here's what I ended up with.  Still not exactly what I wanted ... but better!! LOL

These next two are more MINNIE than Mickey but still really cute!  Once again I was able to use up some off cuts from other projects that have been piling up. 



So there you have it!
A very fun filled day creating cards for the kiddos.

I hope you have a wonderful day and a FABULOUS week ahead!
Can you believe October is coming to an end ... Holy Moly!
Trick or Treat is this weekend and I usually have anywhere between 100 and 200 kids.  Although in the past few years that number has come down a bit ... between Covid and kids growing up I guess!  LOL

As always . . .
