Kids Valenine's Day Items

Here are some cute and quick valentine's day cards I made for my son to take for his classmates. I pulled ideas from many talented fellow scrapbookers, to make these. I also wanted to make some decorated suckers for him to share. I bought your regular red heart shaped suckers and covered them in a simple black, white and red. The cards are 3 x 4 inches big and the sucker covers are 2 inches x 4 3/4 inches (scored at 2 1/4 and 2 1/2).

Outta this world!

My oldest son, Jordan, turned 5 on January 2nd, so of course I had to make him a great card to go with his present. Jordan is really into Space and the planets right now, so for his gift I got him a solar system mobile (he loves it!). I used the new paper 'You Rock' in the current catalog. The card ended up being similar to the one I made for another boy, but I like the result. I embossed the green planet on a transparency, and added some more little stars to the one B&T paper. Although it is hard to see I used some foam strips to pop up the scalloped circle that the alien is on as well as put some liquid glass on his eyes.

Alien Celebration

A few Weeks ago was my friend's sons 5th birthday. What 5 year old doesn't like aliens and monsters, I know my kids do, so I decided to go with that theme for his birthday card and was quite pleased with the results. I used liquid glass on the aliens eyes for a bit of pop and shine although it is hard to see from the picture. I didn't have a large enough scalloped circle cutter so I cut a slightly larger circle then I wanted and got my corner rounder and created my own, I also did the same for the scalloped rectangle behind the alien. The colours used are black, white daisy, sunflower, dutch blue, olive and outdoor denim.

Materials used (all are CTMH unless otherwise stated):

sunflower ink pad, outdoor denim ink pad, dutch blue ink pad, black ink pad, and bamboo ink pad, goldrush marker

ek success corner rounder, Martha Stuart scalloped edge punch, cm circle cutter, cuttlebug swiss dot embossing folder
