Two October Birthday Cards


 Hello to you and also hello to October. Back in June I was a challenge winner over at A Cut Above and won a e-gift card to A Cherry on Top. One of the items that I got in my order was a stamp set from Hampton Art. So, for today's card I wanted to share with you all a card that I made using one of the images.
 



     I colored the image with alcohol markers; the sentiment is from S.U. called Garden Birdhouses. Used kraft cardstock for the base and Soft Sky from S.U. and Ivory. Can't remember where the little doily die come from. Maybe In Love Arts Store but not sure. 


  This next card is for my grandson Walker's birthday. He likes very simple cards, and this card is definitely simple.



 I had made him a card like this one last year and he really liked it and told me that he wanted the same card every year. So, I did. I did change the sentiment a little and the shape to a rectangle instead of square. I chose rectangle this time because I didn't want to make an envelope for a square card. Used a sharpie to draw the image. 

That's it for me today. Hope you have a good day. Stay crafty my friends and hope you can make it back again.

  3. Aww, that’s so sweet! 💕 How lovely that he wanted the same card every year — that really shows how much he appreciated it! The rectangle idea makes perfect sense, and the hand-drawn image with the Sharpie adds such a personal touch. Hope you have a wonderful day too, and happy crafting! 🎨✨

  4. Beautiful and fun cards, I especially love the hand-drawn card for your grandson, it's so create and the characters so cute!! How funny and wonderful that he liked it so much last year that he wants the same card every year. I have to make the same cake for my daughter every single year (raspberry cream) since she was about 5 years old and saw it on a photo of herself from when she was 2. She is 19 now and still requests the same cake.
    So great to see the pretty floral card linked up at my Garden Party, thank you!!
