My newphew's sixth birthday has just been and gone. He's interested in space at the moment so he had a glow in the dark solar system and a book about the planets and stars for his pressies this year. I thought an alien and stars on a clean and simple card might be just the thing to go with those.
This stamp set has seen good service for all the little boys I seem to make cards for (I have only one little girl to make for to break the monotony!). Although it's no longer available, the designer (Kim Hughes) has started her own stamp company and the images in the Little Fella set are almost the same.A little Kaz-style doodling around the stars and orange panel helps lift the design a little without being too fussy.
Stamps: Little Guy and Birthday Centers (Cornish Heritage Farms, retired)
Paper: smooth white and orange
Ink: Brilliance by Tsukineko (Graphite Black)
Other:
Fiskars squeeze punch (small star)
Corner Chomper
Copic markers and Fineliner
Thanks for stopping by!
