Loquacious is now 6 years old. He asked me to make him a card the other day with very specific instructions. He wanted a phoenix bird wearing a birthday hat and steam coming out of the hat. Those that know him can guess why.Ok, then. The only problem was I had no phoenix stamps. And I looked for some online, but apparently "phoenix" does not translate to "cute, kid friendly" images. So I had to get inventive. I did find a digi stamp of a bird, a parrot, but I thought it would give me something to work with. Yes, I know it's missing the birthday hat and steam. But after the instructions he's given me for his cake...he'll just have to forgive me

It has been so hot around here lately and making this card just seemed to add to the heat. I get hot just looking at it!
I think some Christmas cards are in order pretty soon to offset this heat. At least in my mind.
oh how cute and clever of you. I think it is adorable. Don't tell your 6 year old that though -grins.
ReplyDeleteI think it's great! Quite inventive indeed... hope he loved it :)
