Matthew and His Toys

Isn't this little boy handsome? Remember I told you there was a little boy in the new Victoria Case Hugs and Hearts Collection #2 for SCACD. Well, meet Matthew.

I have to be honest, I have a difficult time making male cards. I can't use flowers and stickles. (wiping the tears away). Now to the details. Matthew is heat embossed and colored with Copics. His eyes and all the dinosaurs have crystal effects applied to them for shine. The thread on the ribbon was not the right color so I also colored it with Copics. The sentiment "Hi" is stamped with stazon on the gold metal ribbon slider. After going through my stash of embellishments, I came across the two red polka dotted brads and thought that's it - punched two 3/4" circles, inserted the brads and came as close to flowers as I could (hehe).

The sketch for the card is from the Fridays Sketchers .

The inside is simple, just added a few circles and some stitching.

Thank you for viewing my card. Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think and don't forget to check my blog for the candy giveway - ends Monday night.

Just a reminder SCACD is having a huge 30% off sale on Shimmerez.
