Lego Valentine

Hello blog friends.

A little bit ago, I posted a Lego card that I made

for a birthday and my nephew just loved it.

For Valentine's Day I wanted to make something special

for him.  The other cards I made just didn't

look like something a young boy would like,

so I decided to make him another Lego card.

I found a picture of a Lego heart online

and recreated it with some background pieces

made with alcohol inks from my stash.

I designed it and

 cut all the Lego pieces with my Silhouette,

then pieced them together onto

white card stock.

Each of the little circles are on tiny

foam dot adhesive pieces.

It was a bit fussy, but well worth

the time, as I love how it turned out.

I hope Anthony loves it as much as I do.

Thanks for stopping by today,

I hope you've been inspired in some way and

will come again soon.

Until then

think outside the box and try something

new!

Lego Card

Hi all!

Today I have a card that I made for my 

'great nephew' Anthony.

It was for his 7th birthday party and I struggle with 

boy cards. I was hemming and hawing about what to

do for his card.

He loves Star Wars and Mine Craft,

but nothing was clicking.

Someone said, 

"I have a picture here of Star Wars Legos,

you could use it on the card"

That did it, Legos!  of course!  He LOVES Legos.

It really was very simple to make,

cut 1" strips of paper and punch out circles,

then put them on the strips with foam tape.

Once the idea formed in my mind, 

it all came together pretty easily.

Here is a close up of the "Legos" where they show up 

a bit better.

I thought they turned out really great.

The "Happy Birthday" was stamped

in Versa Fine Black Onyx ink.

I love the bright colors and thought they were perfect for 

a 7 yr old boy.

So next time you need a boy card, think Legos,

after all who doesn't love Legos?

Thanks for stopping in today.

I hope to see you again soon.

Keep crafting!
