I used Prismacolor pencils and Gamsol to color the design. And, then I die cut it with a Poppy Stamps Stitchwork Rectangle Frame once in white (to cut out the center design) and again in red where I just used the frame part.
I placed it on a blue denim card stock base and then stamped the sentiment which is from the Gina K. Designs Beautiful Balloons stamp set. To finish the card I added a white panel inside for stamping a verse or writing a message.
Since I wanted this for a toddler I on purpose did not add any gems or sequins or ribbon bows. Little ones sometimes stick lots of things in their mouths and I did not want them to swallow or choke on these items.
I am enttering this in the Dies R Us Challenge which calls for Planes, Trains and Automobile designs. I figured this would fit right in.
Well, happy Monday to you and I hope your week is off to a good start. Take care and until next time enjoy life! Thanks for stopping by.
God bless,
Verna

Darling little boy card Verna! I have been needing to get some stamps to make cards for children. Thanks for inspiring me.
It's darling, Verna! Colorful and fun and so neatly crafted. I like how you inset the image panel. Now you have another frame already cut and ready to use, too. This is just the cutest card for a little boy!
What a sweet card for a little boy!
Adorable card for a little boy toddler. So nice of you to think about the embellishments that could be dangerous for little ones. Nice Red white and blue theme too.
THis is just perfect for a little man, and I love all the rich blue colors! Super cute birthday make!

Oh, how cute! I love this sweet image and great coloring. I like it just as it is. I leave sequins, gems, etc. off my cards a lot. I don't like taking away from the beauty of the image. Awesome little boy card.
