Laila is 9!

 Gee, it's hard to believe my great granddaughter turns 9 today.

 Here is a picture from her blog debut in 2014.

That shirt and those earrings still fit this old grandma!  

 Every year since then I have made Laila a card using a set of quilted numbers digital stamps from Beccy's Place.   Here is her card for this year using the digi for number 9.  


 I printed and fussy cut the precolored lion digi image.  I also printed just the lion's head and fussy cut that.  The head is attached to the card with an Action Wobbler from Art Impressions.  It's cute when it jiggles.

I made the center step card, following online directions from Splitcoast Stampers.  I didn't realize I'd end up with a 5 1/2" square card.  I brought some square envelopes with me to FL but they measured 5 1/2 x 5 1/2, so the card didn't fit.  I ended up making an envelope, addressing it and sealing it without putting the card inside.  Luckily I was able to open it without damage and inserted the card. 
 
Laila is getting so grown up.  Just look at her now.

Did you ever buy a pack of paper 
just to get one sheet from it?  
What do you do with the rest of the paper?
 
You use it to make a DT card!

Send A Smile 4 Kids February 2023 Challenge #234


The theme for the February Challenge at

Follow SAS4Kids on Facebook!
is 
Easter/Spring Cards 4 Kids.
 
Anything Goes for kids is always acceptable, too.
We just want to see your wonderful creations
and hope you enjoy making and sharing them! 
 
Here's a set of cards I made for the February Challenge.

When I opened the box of Spring/Easter stuff  in my stash, I came across these 3 apertures from die cutting bunnies for previous cards.   They were perfect for a bit of Iris Folding.
 
Here's another fun card I created from the scraps in that box.
 


It would be great if you joined the fun at the
February Challenge.
(Cards only, please. And they need not be donated.)
 
Please take some time and visit the fabulous blogs of my teammates.  They work so hard and are very creative!
