The patterned paper is from Kaisercraft. The ribbon that you can barely see is from Papertrey Ink. The ornaments were cut from Christmas Cheer. The larger one is 1 1/2 and the smaller ones 3/4 inches. I used diamond stickles and glossy accents on the ornaments and the white background which I embossed with my christmas cuttlebug folder. The sentiment is from Scrappy Moms stamps.

Happy Birthday Carlie and Ethan

Hey everyone.Thanks for stopping by. Hope you are all having a great day. It's a rainy one here in Alberta.:( Lot's of those here lately.
Anyway, today's card I made for my son Ethan. His birthday was yesterday. Big 6. Also, my daughter Carlie was 16 on the 19th or July. We had a party for both of them yesterday. It was lots of fun.
This card is a 6 x 6. I made it this big because of the cuts on the Toy Story cartridge. I was so excited about this cartridge but, looking through it there is little I will use as the pieces are so super tiny.
 He wanted a Toy Story card so I thought this Woody head would do and he just loved it.
The cardstock is from Papertrey ink and Recollections. The patterned paper is from DCWV grade school stack. Button are from my stash and the rik rak is from Maya Road. The Toy Story was cut at 1 3/4 and the Woody head was cut at 5 inches. I used some glossy accents on the hair, scarf, tongue, teeth and eyes. I used the oriental weave embossing folder for the red cardstock and my black gel pen to doodle.


Hope you all enjoyed my card and please leave a comment. I would also love it if you became a follower. :) Candy
