Birthday boy

This is one of those stamps that I bought thinking it would be good for boys cards, but for some reason I've only used it once or twice!  I'll definitely have to get it inked a bit more often.  My DP was also one I bought thinking it would be good for boys, but I'm so not fussed on it.  No pleasing me, eh?

Lili of the Valley image - coloured with pencils.  Tab die from Paper Smooches.

Layout inspired by Sketch'n Dies #1 - though I used a square panel instead of a circle.

A lovely card - and very suitable for a wee boy! I think the paper is also very appropriate and just my kinda colours!

I think the paper is so cool and so is the stamp. It's just super for a boy card and you made an awesome one.
