My dear grandson, Emmitt, turned 6 in January and he loves dinosaurs and Broncos- just like Papa! He wanted a Russel Wilson jersey for his birthday, so we found a shirt for him and then I got out my dinosaur dies and DSP- Designer Series Paper to make a u-fold box card for him. The dinosaur heads got replaced with Bronco heads to combine two themes. My inspiration came from Amanda Bates of the Craft Spa.
I used designer series paper for the background, die cut the dinosaurs from the DSP, and colored the Bronco heads to match as best I could. The Happy Birthday is from the Birthday Chicks dies. Emmitt’s name is from the dies in the Ribbon Rossett set and the ‘6’ is from our Large Number Framelit set.
Recipe
- Base: Thick White, 8 7/8 X 4 1/8, Score at 1 3/8, 2 3/4, 6 1/8, 7 1/2
- Bridge: Thick White, 5 7/8 X 1
- Background Scene: Horizon DSP, 4 sides are 1 1/8 X 3 7/8, back is 3 1/8 X 3 7/8; Amanda started with a blank white piece 7 5/8 X 3 7/8 and created her own background then cut it at 1 1/8, 1 1/8, 3 1/8, 1 1/8, 1 1/8.
- Box Sections:
- 4 1/8 X 1, score 3/8 ” from each side
- 4 7/8 X 1, score 3/4″ from each side
I only needed one box section but used both and then the dino can look like he is in the grass.
Have a wonderful day! I am off to make valentines.
