Scooter boy


  • LOTV- scooter boy stamp
  • We R memory keepers- anthologie 6 x 6 paper pad
  • Lawn fawn custom craft dies- large dotted square & large dotted rectangle stackables 
  • Copics- C4, 5, 6, 7, 8. W00, 1, 3. E21, 35, 41, 50, 51, 55, 57, 93. R17, 27, 29. B95, 97, 99. YG00, 01, 21. G20. 0. 
  • Neenah classic crest card stock 
  • Red card stock 
  • 6” square cardblank

I was asked to make a great grandson card for a little boy turning 6. I created a custom sentiment on the computer to fit inside the rectangle die, printed it onto Neenah card stock and cut it out. For the image I stamped, die cut and coloured the scooter boy. I covered the cardblank with the patterned paper and die cut a panel of a coordinating red card. To complete the card, I simply arranged the pieces onto the cardblank, overlapping each other, with just the sentiment raised on foam pads for a bit of dimension.

  • Mama elephant: Madison Avenue creative cuts die
  • Stampin up!: curly cute
  • Make it colour blending cardstock
  • Copics:E50,51,21,93. E42,43,44. Y15. BG10,53. BV0000,000,00,11. V25. RV00. C5,6,7,8.
  • Wink of Stella ‘clear’ sparkle brush marker
  • Tim holtz ‘dusty concord’ distress ink pad
  • Pattern Paper (from craftwork cards, don’t know the name)
To make this card I simply die cut my frame from copic friendly cardstock. I used the centre to stamp and colour my image, then cut it out using the matching die. 
I cut out a piece of pattern paper, which had the sentiment printed on. I inked my card blank with the purple ink then glue the paper to the centre. I added the white frame. I glued the image in place using foam for dimension. Final touch was a bit of sparkle to the wings.
