For The Boys: SDC 273

Sometimes when I need to make something masculine I get a bit stumped. Not because I have no boys or men in my life, but...my son is a bit different than some boys. He loves Legos and action figures but can't stand most sports and would rather play My Little Pony than throw a football most of the time, which, I am entirely okay with.

THIS time, however, I was really inspired. My son received this gift card and holder for Christmas from his great aunt and I was immediately sure I had to make one. Like, HAD to. The rocket takes off! That's awesome!
So, much to my son's dismay, I messed it up to reverse engineer it. He will survive, I wager. ;)


Anyway, I broke out the designer paper and got to work. One I was able to get a working prototype everything was a breeze. I, of course, used Stampotique's ADORABLE rocket ship and I used my favorite Stampotique quote for the front. And see those planets behind the rocket? They are actually from one of our recent releases. It is actually a neat stamp with sweet circles with different patterns but I decided to re-purpose them.
 Now, to save it for an occasion. Maybe for my baby boy. ;) Or....I might keep it....cause I kinda love it. Hhaa. Anyone else have this problem when they craft? Be sure to participate in our challenge case then you have a chance to WIN stuff! So....DO It!
