Oh, Boy!
Iulia is our hostess this week, and she's asked us to make cards or projects that show a boy's attitude!
I've used Mo's "William and Jeffrey" for my card. I think this exhibits an attitude of mutual love and admiration, which our boys felt for each other when they weren't killing each other! LOL!
I found this image on an old site of Mo's and immediately shot her an email to ask her to make it available as a digital image. She graciously agreed! The image is from a manuscript she did probably twenty years (or more) earlier. I thought that was interesting, because the kids' clothes don't look dated at all! She says there are more of this cute duo, but she has yet to locate the drawings. I'll be waiting!
Images: "William and Jeffrey" with the sentiment from Mo's Digital Pencil
Tools: Copics, Prismacolor pencil, MS Zig-zag border punch, Sponge dauber
Papers: SU! Soft Suede, Yo-yo Yellow, Neenah smooth white, Basic Grey DP
Embellishments: Grosgrain ribbon, Brad, Buttons
Now grab one of Mo's fabulous little boy images and join us in Mo's Challenge for a chance to win a free image of your choice! We're also looking for another Guest Designer, so, if you're interested, just a be sure to label your entry with the letters "GD".
So happy you dropped in!

What an awesome project Elaine, glad you saw the drawing and had Mo digitize it :) Always love buttons on boy cards :)
Such an adorable card. I like the saying you added to it too. That is a precious sentiment. Love the papers and embellishments you used.
Wonderful creation. :)

Elaine what a wonderful card.
I have what might be a strange question. Did you ever live in California even as child? You can e-mail me at lillirish@msn.com.

Hi Elaine! Sorry I'm just now getting around to commenting on your sweet, sweet card! It brought tears to my eyes when you said this Mo image looked like your boys when they weren't trying to kill one another! Funny...I have 2 boys who fit that desciption too!! They're adults and they still bicker...but I know they would do anything for one another!! Your card is sooooo sweet...and your coloring is perfect! And what a fun story about this image!! Hugs.
