"ALL ABOUT BOYS" this week at www.myshericrafts.blogspot.com !!  I'm not to quick at making boy/guy cards, so I had to think on this one!  And of course, I needed 3 girl cards this week! LOL

Start with a good heavy quality card base.  Cover with the brown dot paper found at HL.  I cut it about 3/4 to the bottom.  I then cut the train from the Cricut cartridge "New Arrival" with a shadow, and 2 layers.   The "BOY" is cut from the Cricut cartridge, "Story Book" Punch the train border from Martha Stewart on coordinating papers, and cut 2 additional layers of coordinating paper, for under the train.  Cut ribbon to match and get ready to put it together!
I used mini baby safety pins in blue to use as the wheel covers!  Ribbon to tie the cars together, and a ribbon at the bottom to break up the different papers.  So easy, but yet fun to give!  All my papers this week are from HL.  I used a total of 5 different papers, not including the card base!
