Beth (MyPrecious) alerted me to a little boy Dylan she knows who has been diagnosed with Leukemia. She posted a request found here, for people to RAK him with cards! You can also find his story there as well.
How could I not send a card? I make ton to sit in a storage box, why not one to actually send to a special child?
I hope you will join me in this. Dust off a boy set, or any set really and lets RAK him! I know first hand the joy a simple handmade card can bring. Alexa has received hundreds! Probably even a thousand if I counted.
Now about the card-You guessed it Lizzie Anne Designs All Guy (btw no I don’t design for her-I saw the banner ad she had on SCS and bought 3 sets!LOL! Im just really likin her style)
So if you are wondering what all the jumbled letters are in the background you obviously don’t have an XBOX addicted 4 yo boy like I do. To do most of the fighting you have letter combos -like xxyab for example! LOL! Thats how I did the background!
I used a Library stamp from ProvoCraft for that. Made it quick to do the combos. I looked at the controller, and copied the button arrangement. Alphabits by SU! were for the round buttons on the side panel. See there is more thought to this simple card that you thought huh?
I used A Muse candy for the buttons. I was pretty happy with this, and hope Dylan likes it. It is like a video game so whats not to like right?

This is so cute and what a great idea! I love those Lizzie anne stamps and this would be perfect for some of my guys too! Thanks for the inkspiration!
Love this Lauren…I can think of a few 30 year olds this would be perfect for too! I’m hoping to get some stamp time in tonight to make something for Dylan…thanks for the heads up!
Oh my goodness! I think this card would be perfect for any guy (or girl, myself included) who has ever touched a game console and immediately became addicted! I absolutely love this! Great job!
