The other week I went to Stamp Magic at Doncaster where lovely Tracy Easton was (quite rightly)proudly showing off her new stamp sets. Although I had something else in mind for my project as soon as I saw the stamps I had a better idea! As it happened I also had a free gift of some fancy cut cards(one of Whichcraft's specialities) because I bought the show offer(and more!!!)
I cut off the edges - I saved the fancy scallops for a journal page.
Unfortunately the card I needed to make was for an older 'boy' so I still had to make another card - I'll show you that soon!
I know who will be getting this though so all is good!
Looking forward to seeing the entries this time. The 'For The Boys' challenge is open for two weeks - we do hope you will join us!
Thanks for looking, Chris

Gorgeous card Chris, have fun with your new stamps. Hugs, Valerie
Wow Chris this looks fabulous. Great images and words. I'm sure this would to appeal to a few age groups. It sounds like you have a few new stamps and crafty goodies to use soon.

A wonderful card, Chris
I'm always drawn in to Whichcraft show offers but then I don't get round to using them! I like that you cut off the fancy edges and lovely array of different stamps. I got those little water colours at Port Sunny and use them all the time. It's a fab card Chris.

The pop-up card is fabulous. I have that same stacking watercolor set. Great to travel with.
Wow, what a stunning card! I love the design and all the elements you created - amazing :-). Can't wait to see the other card that you made and maybe some more of those crafting goodies that you purchased too ...lol ;-) . Wishing you a happy new and creative week Chris! J x
Your pop-up card is amazing! I once did some of these and I had always difficulties with the cutting I remember! Your boy version is amazing! Great new stamps!
Hugs, Susi
Looks complicated. Really cute. :)
Awesome card Chris. I love those stamped images. They are really adorable (but not in a baby adorable way.) I like how you went with a space theme. :) Hugs-Erika
What a clever cut of a card Chris, so many little areas to discover and decorate. Tracy's stamps are so wonderful and this set is no exception.
Fabulous creation!

Oh this is tremendous, Chris. I love 3D cards and artwork. It's a great "boy" theme although swap the boy for a girl and it would be equally good. I like the spaceman popping up and the spaceships flying all over your card universe.
So many clever techniques on this card, Chris, I don't know where to begin. I love how you did the sky panels on deli paper. Terrific card!
