This week at
it's Kate's turn to choose the challenge, and if you've been keeping an eye on her choices this year you'll know that her themes are all based on 80's music, and this challenge is no exception - it's "Let's Hear It For the Boy!" which just means that she would like to see cards for or about boys/men. Oh, woah, woah woah!
This is what I did....
I absolutely adore this digi from Mo's Digital Pencil. I think I've used it for at least one Christmas card every year since I bought it. Really wish I was a better glitterer, so I could make the star sparkly but any time I've tried to make something that large sparkle, it's ended in disaster, so I just left the shining part to the imagination.
This boy so reminds me of my oldest....when he was this age he had blonde hair, though his was curly. He was so sweet about Christmas....when he was about 2 years old, we were leaving my husband's parents' place on Christmas Eve, and when we walked outside he spotted a red flashing light on a communication tower off in the distance, and got very excited and said "Look, Mommy, Santa is coming soon! I see Rudolph's nose!" I thought that was adorable....and I didn't hesitate to use the fact that "Rudolph" (and Santa) were so close to get him to go to bed without any fuss. (:
