I made this card for my friend's little boy. He is away at camp for the next two weeks and will have his 8th birthday this Saturday. I found him this for a gift.
They saw the movie while they were on vacation and I thought it might be fun for him to have something new to wear for his second week at camp.
To make the card I found this coloring kit at my local Walmart.
I came with coloring pages inside, a sheet of stickers and some crayons all for $1. My main goal was to have something to work with to make a card with. So I cut up the back cover to get my little minions. Then I had a little bit of the arrow and the grab & go sign in my square so I decided to make some balloons to cover them up. I made my balloons with a circle punch and then snipped the corner off a piece of paper for the bottom. I attached white bakers twine with mini glue dots. I stamped the background with some SU Birthday Sketch stamps and sponged a little blue color so it wasn't plain white. My card is a 5 1/2" square.
I kept the inside simple.
Thanks for stopping by. If you need a laugh, whether you are 3 or 103, I encourage you to go see Despicable Me 2. It's hilarious.
