Father's Day Card From Ryan To His Daddy!

Hello I thought I would share my son's card for his Dad. Yesterday we spent ALL day working on this card. When I say ALL day, I mean ALL day! He picked SpongeBob! I thought great this will be very simple. Cut it out, stick it together and we are done... hour tops! Little did I know when he looked at the picture he wanted it to be EXACTLY like it! So  he picked the colors and I paper pierced all the details! Thank goodness he thinks it perfect because I just see the smudge marks from his little fingers, how it doesn't line up and many other mishaps. Lol. He really sat beside me for a good portion of it, waiting patiently. He ran the background paper thru the Cuttlebug and sanded it. Thanks Stephanie for Ryan's "NEW" favorite tool! He seriously wants to use it for everything. He even help do the eyelets, picked the little alphabet letter beads( I forgot I had) and put the twine thru the eyelets.. He used the ATG gun and stamped the sentiment. I did the embossing. I surely didn't want to go to the ER explaining 3rd degree burns from a scrapbooking tool! We had a lot of fun doing it together and he is sooo excited to give this to his Dad.
Yes ~ he is still in his pajamas in the late afternoon. Yes ~ he wears longs sleeves and bottoms even in the summer!  But the smile is just priceless!



Materials:


Cartridge ~ SpongeBob
Stamp ~ My Creative Time ~ You're My Best Buddy
Paper ~ Scraps form my scrap TRUNK!
Extras ~ Twine from PTI, eyelets, Zing Embossing powder, Sakura pen, Cuttlebug Tiny Bubbles embossing folder, Alphabet beads

  2. Love the card Kim! So much details. Ryan is a happy and gorgeous little boy. You must be so proud of him. Wish we could make a father's day card too.
    Thanks so much for the sweet note you left us. Sorry if I was out of touch for quite sometime. Nothing to worry, we're all doing good. Moving and having 2 pc's on the road that break down didn't help at all. Again thanks for checking on us. Talk to you later...
    Take care and enjoy crafting!

    I hope very well...and by the looks of that smile on that sweet little boy...you ARE doing well!
    Makes me just wish we could get together! =)
    Now I made the cards for the Dad's in our live but the kids did the writing on the inside (or like Scotti was getting lazy and just wrote S and J instead of him name, the J for his sister) LOL!!!!!
    Anyways LOVE the project and sure that Dad loved it too!

    XOXO!
