Here is the card that I made Brayden for his 7th Birthday, from us- "the herd"! It is perfect for him! He is a HUGE Etch-a-sketch lover! And he is a true farm boy! When I first saw this stamp set I knew it was going to be a favorite in our family & it sure is! The twins thought I needed to make them a farm animal card too since Brayden got one. I am glad that they liked it too.
I actually think that these animals are hilarious! Just look at their faces. Can't you think of a friend that you know that makes faces such as they are? It is just too cute of a stamp set. And guess what- it is NOT CARRYING OVER INTO THE CATALOG. This stamp set will be gone on after June 2nd. So if you want it- be sure you order it before then!
I stamped the animals onto vellum using the Black Stazon pad. Then layered it on a piece of white card stock & mounted it inside the rectangular window that I created using the #135707- Project Life Cards & Labels framelits ($24.95) on page 230 in the big catalog.
stamp set: 'From the Herd'
card stock: Real Red, Whisper White, Vellum
ink: Black Stazon
marker: Basic Black
other: Big Shot, Project Life Cards & Labels framelits, 3/4" Circle Punch, Dimensionals, Paper Snips, Glue Dots

The races were rained out last night- so we changed plans. Nathan & Sarah took Brayden & his friends bowling for his birthday party. And after the Seeley boys left here Deke & I ran to Osky & delivered some stamps along the way. We got groceries, new shoes for Deke, ate supper & headed home. We spent the night in the kitchen making food for today's classes. I hope everyone is hungry. I have some yummy food I'm taking along with me today too. I have a big group coming & I'm looking forward to seeing everyone. We have some familiar faces attending that haven't joined us for awhile, along with some new faces too! I have 6 super cute cards for them all to make & we are going to have a super fun day stamping together. I have a group attending the morning session & then another group attending the afternoon session. I can't wait!
I have to hurry home though- as today is my nephew Josh's graduation party. We took the hog to the locker for his party earlier this week & then I gave my brother-in-law instructions on how to cook it. I'm looking forward to seeing many of my family that I haven't seen since Christmas. The Seeleys' are picking Deke up & I'll be meeting them all at the party. If the rain holds off- Nathan, Sarah, Brayden & Trevor are going racing tonight.
Ok....gotta run....I still have to finish packing everything up, load the car & head out!
I hope you have a SENSATIONAL Saturday!
Happy Stamping!
Hugs!
