Just Jawing

Hi & happy Saturday ~

A beautiful bright sunny day here in Canberra, it's got a real Spring feel about it. Makes me want to get out in my long neglected garden.

I have some cards that I made with the now retired Just Jawing set which I absolutely love for boys birthday cards. Gorgeous kid has a few upcoming parties so these were made with those in mind. I used Tangerine Tango, then Wild Wasabi followed by Real Red at bottom.

I tried to create a bit of a grunge look by making my own graffiti type background using the retired Linen stamp and one of the Trendy Trees images along with the Just Jawing stars. I tore the edge of my WW c/s all the way around and put the stamp pad direct to the c/s for a bit of a messy look. I think overall they look a little haphazard and will probably suit their 10 year old recipient's.

Let me know what you think :o)

  4. So appropriate! What 10 yr old boy (or probably any younger boy) wouldn't appreciate this card? I know my son would! Thanks for sharing - love those googly eyes
