I don't often give a child 4-5 years old money for an occasion such as a birthday. Sometimes, though, there is no other choice. It never fails to make their face shine when they see a "big" number on a bill which is such fun.
Yesterday I posted a card made with one of the Some Odd Girl images. They are sponsoring the Digital Tuesday Challenge this week. When going through their stamps, I could not choose just one to use. They are all so adorable.
Today I used the cutest dog called Lil Puppy Walks. The first thing I thought of when I saw him was a child's card. I have very few of this theme in my stash of cards so that made it the perfect choice.
I colored him very simply since that is how most child cards I have seen are. I also think that children that age associate with that type of coloring on an image.
he he he, I love his little toy. I bought this a while ago to make a scrapbook page about my doxie. It still hasn't happened, but I found this and the bone sticker as I was going through my stash. This image was just crying for these!
Look at that big number on the bill. Wow, it has not 1 but 2 digits, lol. If I were 5 years old this bill would instantly make me feel so grown up!
I am entering him into the following challenges:
Belli Challenge #90~~~Birthday Card
Stamp With Us~~~Birthday Card

Onto my RE-DO. Last Tuesday, I posted a TV Guide/magazine holder. As I said in the post, I was not happy with the image background. Since I adhered it with the very strong Scor-tap, I did not think I would be able to get it off. Well...I did! Here is the "new" one, LOL
I definitely like this much better. I used a smaller piece of wood and left off the gold "shine" around him. I also added the DAD! with a frame.
As you can see, the rest remained the same. I still love the charm. It seems so funny to me with the image, LOL
I am entering this version in the following challenges:
A Spoonful Of Sugar challenge~~~3D item
There's Magic In The Air~~~anything goes
Crafty Calendar Challenge~~~April Fools, a fun or humorous project
