The Conductor

Hello friends!

Brrrr....only about 57 days until spring, and I am SO ready! Hope you are staying warm wherever you are today. 

We needed a Birthday Card for a darling grandson that is turning 3 next Monday. I found the cutest digi image at Tiddly Inks, and decided that our little sweetie will have a train card this year. This image is called The Conductor.

Rylan loves to get 'grandma cards', so this one needed to be a bit interesting for him. I decided to do a fun Z-fold card.  While trying to plan a background, I found another digi image at Tiddly Inks, Happy Day Background...perfect!!!

I cuddled up under my blanket, took my images and Copic markers, and colored myself happy. After the images were colored, I created the card. Wish you could see the Glossy Accents on the train wheels and cars - makes the images come to life!

Here's my card:

I always go to Tiddly Inks when I need a sweet image, and again, they didn't disappoint!  They are having a DT Call through the end of January - if you are interested, check out the details HERE.

Measurements for card:

Base: 5" x 11", scored at 2 3/4" and 5 1/2".

Z Band: 1 1/2" x 11", scored at 5 1/2" and 8 1/4"

The mats are cut to these dimensions:

2 @ 2 1/2" x 4 3/4"

1 @ 5 1/4" x 4 3/4"

2 @ 2 1/2" x 1 1/4"

1 @ 5 1/4" x 1 1/4"

You will adhere your Z band to the panel, using adhesive on only the far left section and far right sections. If you have questions, give me a shout!

Thanks for stopping by today - happy creating!!!

Hugs and grins,
