All in the Family card



I know I have put too much on this card but it is for my only grandaughter for her fourth birthday and I know she would like all kinds of stuff on her card! Apparently she is a little Prima Donna! Of all things, she has wanted to have her ears pierced and has begged her parents for months to get them done. They explained to her how it would hurt and anything else they could think of to turn her off but she wouldnt have it so they caved in and she is now very proud of her earrings LOL.

It was an opportunity for me to use my All In The Family set again and also my pretty DSPs. The flowers are punched with the Spring Bouquet punch and the tiny centres are punched with a wee baby daisy punch, then rhinestones glued in.

It is a nice feeling to be caught up with my cards and swaps again now. Back to making some OTP things and some baby cards for future use and maybe to sell.

Hi Jean,
It is a prefect card for a four year old with pierced ears...lol
I think it is well balanced and a beautiful card.

Aaaaawwwww! This is an absolutely perfect grand daughter card Jean. I don't think there is too much on it though. I love it! Re the pierced ears, Claire had hers done when she was 2! We caved much earlier. I got some anaesthetic cream from work and put it on her earlobes so didn't hurt until about an hour later. Cheers, Leanne.

I don't think there is too much on it.... I am sure your grandaughter will love it! My DD was the same with earrings... we couldn't sway her either!
