My Sweetie Pie

A quick post of a card for my sweet granddaughter who turns two tomorrow. It's already on the way and hope it gets there in time.  This image reminds me of her and how she hugs her stuffed doggie, the one she holds with her blankie when she goes to sleep. Her blankie at the moment is a pillow case ..ha.. and sometimes a large pillow. So, if you're rocking her, you have a lap full. Too sweet.  I wanted flowers and frills as she is a girly girl. Plus, she has those adorable two pony tails..my son calls them her antennae.

Happy Birthday

I posted a card earlier this week for my little granddaughter who just turned one year old. Her brother will be three years old this coming Saturday and they are having a birthday party this weekend. The parents can get away with having their parties together while they are so young, but just wait!! That won't work forever. Ha

My grandson is surely going to be the next Pele in the soccer world. He loves kicking a ball. Of course, it doesn't have to be a soccer ball...any ball will do. Plus, he is really good for a two year old. Occasionally, he kicks hard and misses the ball and down he goes but he doesn't have far to fall so it doesn't usually hurt..unless he is on concrete.

So, with all this ball kicking, I just had to make THIS card. It is so 'him'.

I am using a Mo's Digital Pencil image called Soccer Boy, making an out-of-the-box card. Adding some dsp for the clouds, colored the image with Copics, and stamped a sun. Of course, that is the Cuttlebug Happy Birthday embossing folder.
