Our daughter has a family of three lodging with her, including a delightful six year old who had his birthday a couple of days ago. He is dinosaur mad, so it was easy to think of a theme for his card.
It took me a while to find this dinosaur stamp as the last time I used is was HERE for my great nephew's birthday.... in 2013! There is no brand name on the packet, but I remember buying it at a craft fair in a bargain bucket at the NEC. I stamped the image on a snippet of white card using Memento 'Tuxedo Black' and coloured it with Promarkers, grounding the dinosaur with pale grey. The patterned paper was snippets too, from a paper pad from The Range. I used a die from The Works for the number six, using another snippet of white card.
I am joining in the following challenges:

WOW What a fun & fabulous card for a 6 year old (my great grandson just turned 6 and his 'thing' right now is Minecraft ... so I had to turn to Pinterest for help lol). I'm sure he was just thrilled with Dino and glad you were able to find him!! Thanks so much for joining in the fun at our Neglected Stuff challenge! Good Luck and we hope you’ll come back often.
