That little Eliot Jones is the cutest little person! The story was cute too. The kids made me read it twice. I was inspired to make this card.
Actually every page in the book was cool so you might be seeing more cards inspired by this little book in the future.

I really don't do well with "cute" cards so that is what I have been trying to work on. This is my attempt at a cute boys birthday card. I also stink at coloring so I just used an orange distress ink to color the rocket. My beloved Hero Arts newspaper skyline stamp and there you have it. Cute Cute Cute!?!?
aww how cute...great little scene you created.
ReplyDeleteWell Wida, this card is very cute although you state you don't do cute cards well. I love the little scene you have created.
ReplyDeleteThis is a fabulous take on the cute birthday boy card - it's not too cutesy as in sickly-sweet but hits just the right spot for the guys!
ReplyDeleteHugs!
