Card Challenge: About a Boy: Dump Trucks, Cement Mixers, Fast Cars and Other Boy Stuff
Here’s the challenge! To play along you have to make a boy card or scrapbook layout featuring one of those movers or shakers (or something) little boys - and big - seem to love. You can piece it, you can stamp it, you can color it. Post it on your blog - along with detailed instructions - and leave a link to your project using the Mr. Linky form at the bottom of this post. Mr. Linky will close on Sunday, March 7th.
To make this a little more fun, I’m offering this 3 layer clear stamp set Cutie from Stampology. If I can’t figure out how to do a random number draw before the 7th, I’ll simply throw your names in a bag!
Here’s a little inspiration from Paper and Piecings to get you started.
