Hello everyone! It's time for another party, and this time I planned ahead. I was so sad when the last two parties snuck up on me and I was so swamped with work that I didn't have any more time to create anything. This month's theme is very practical, because I always find myself running out of these... Birthday. Yep, those I never have on hand. My mum also decided to commission a card for a one year old boy. So I thought I better pull out my Half-pint Heroes...
Stamps: (Way Out West, Half Pint Heroes) Waltzingmouse Stamps
Paper: (Paper Basics Card Stock -Kraft) Papertrey Ink
Ink: (Jenni Bowlin - No. 11 Brown Sugar) Ranger; (Versamark) Tsukineko
Embellishments: (Soft-core Color Pencils) Prismacolor; (3/8" Topnotch Twill Tape - Fine Linen) Papertrey Ink; (Yellow Airmail Washi) Freckled Fawn
All this new grunge hitting Waltzingmouse Stamps, made me want to make a "dirty" background. I tried stamping off the mountain range from Way Out West, and then stamping onto the card stock to get the lighter ones towards the top.
I colored this rocket up in some bright yellows & orange, and thought the yellow airmail washi could also double as "construction / warning" tape to draw some attention to the sentiment. I think it goes quite well with the rocket.
I also stamped the a sentiment on the twill ribbon. Twill by itself is great, it can be dressed up, or dressed down. It also acts like a blank canvas (especially the Fine Linen twill), don't you think?
So, I'm off to head to bed, but can't wait to see your lovely creations soon...Thanks so much for stopping by and enjoy the rest of what's left of this month! Summer is flying by so quickly, how will you make use of the remaining months?

Oh, I love the starry sky, and the happy little guy in his cosy rocket! Gorgeous card Ren Yi!
Oh Ren-Yi! I think that moon rock background is amazing - you would have laughed to see my nose about an inch from the screen trying to figure out how you did it! Very clever! Love your little guy in the rocket - bet your mom is so happy and proud to have such a talented daughter! So neat!
What a fun birthday card. That rocket with the little boy is very sweet.
Absolutely adorable!!

How neat that the western background totally goes along with your space ship card...I would not have thought of that, but it is absolutely perfect! You are too smart!
This is amazing! I just love how you took that background and made it look like a moonscape! Great card my dear!!!!!

Love how you stamped the mountain background on this out of space card Ren-Yi! great coloring on the ship - perfect for a kid card!
Oh Ren-Yi, that back ground is so cleverly done. I've looked at it from every angle possible. Adds sooo much to the card. Genius!

Ren-Yi this is FANTASTIC! Love that little guy in his bright rocket and the washi tape is perfect with this!! Really clever how you stamped the background and oh how I love that sweet starry sky! Fabby x
your card looks great and I love how you created the background.
What a fabulous scene you have created for your little space cadet. Your grungy background is perfect for this card and I love the way you stamped on your twill. Awesomely creative.
Out of this world ! Love the construction site feel of the twill tape over the washi tape and the background too. But that little guy in the rocket is sure to put a smile on any young boy's face.
Great job with this stamp set. What a fun card. :)
Fun, fun, fun!!! The grunge look goes perfect with the rocket and little boys!! Wonderful!
Awesome rocket man card Ren-Yi! Adorable elements~I love the twill ribbon.
Love the sentiment, just perfect for your card
Hugs Julie P
What a fantastic "moonscape" you made for your card!! I love the colors you used on the rocket too, and your use of washi tape: such a fun card!!
There is so much to look at and love on your beautiful card! I can't believe what a great job you've done on the background - that is so eyecatching! Your finishing details are darling - I love the starry sky and moon being left as outlines only - they support but don't overpower your focal point!
What a great card--the colors are so happy and cheerful! I love the "construction" tape especially!
