Tonight I needed some cards for two little guys who just got a new sibling. When I saw this week's CAS(E) this sketch, I thought a banner would be a good idea for one of the sentiments ... since I didn't have a stamp for the occasion, I printed it on my printer.
Well, I didn't find a plane ... but I did find a cool rocket ship from Starving Artistamps ... so instead of a banner, my sentiment is inside hand-cut rocket fuel flames. Papers are BoBunny's Blast Off! Collection. I added a monkey astronaut punched from one of the papers inside my rocket ship.
I added a few Neat & Tangled Sequins for a bit of sparkle.
For the next card, I used this week's Freshly Made Sketch and decided to go with a Halloween theme.
Papers are Cosmo Cricket Matilda & I think the stickers are vintage K&Company.
For this printed sentiment I went with a speech bubble die cut from Talk Bubbles.
Hopefully these will make these little guys feel special with all of the big changes in their lives.
Oh, these are both so sweet! Great use of patterned paper!

Cute cards for the new big brothers! I think it's great to include the other children in the celebration of the birth of a new baby. It makes them feel "special," too. :) The die cuts you used are "vintage" K&Co. I have some cards in my SC gallery on which I've used them. Here are links to the two most recent:

That line had two or three themed designs, each offered as die cuts, chipboard and stickers. I liked them all and bought one or more boxes of each. They are awesome for Halloween and other occasions. I've used them on lots of cards that I've made for my young cousins. I'm sure I'll be using the many pcs I have left, for yrs. to come. Glad to see you liked them, too. :D
