What Little Boys are Made of....

Good morning everyone!  Today's challenge at Charisma Cardz calls for a Birthday card, along with a giftbag or box.  I've fussied up a brown paper lunch bag, which I'll fill with goodies for the Birthday Boy....to get him in a party mood. (lol).  As my grandson will only be four, I kept it simple with no embellishments that could fall off and be mistaken for candy!


I've played with a Whipper Snapper stamp, called Eli and Frogger.  I've had this stamp for ages, but never got around to inking it up.  It worked great for this nice quick CAS card, and I simply scanned it and printed it out with some wording and a digi image from Meljen's Designs, called Diggin a Hole

This week's challenge is sponsored by:

AND

So remember, you can use any stamped or digi images in your projects, for your chance at some yummy prizes.  First though, be sure to head on over and check out the rest of the DT projects for some wonderful inspiration, here.

Have a wonderful crafty day!
