"I like the green I saw in the picture... 

in between the bottom of the flowers...

and the orangey-red flowers are pretty.

I put sparkle on "Snail's Tale" shell to make it sparkle

like the water sparkles, there's water in the vase, you know...

Thank you for looking at my card again!

because I can now do it good.

Thank you :) "

Texture

Hmmm, that is a challenge for me, lol!
But it wasn't for Prairie Fairy's April Jr. Guest Designer...

NICKY!!!

You won't believe how very excited he was and still is
to be "projecting" for someone other than me :)
Thank You, Roberta!!!

... and he is sooo happy, that he had to make 2 cards for his first challenge!
I'm so proud of him!

But fist, I must keep you in suspense (upon request, lol!) and show you my card ;)

hee hee... enjoy!

... and he's also agreed to enter both his cards to

Simon Says Childrens Challenge!

"Hi everyone! I made 2 cards for today's Project Challenge for Miss Prairie Fairy :)"

Here's my first card using Fairy Princess' "Timmy Turtle":

"I used the project machine to make the roundness around the turtle

and extra bumpy stars on the star paper

and then I sand the bumpy stars with sand paper too...

You can make pretend that you can feel the turtle's hard shell too,

if you want too... "

"And I made another card, because it's Easter time :)"

"I colored only a little bit of the "BoBilly Bunny" and he's sitting on grass that I punched...

I used the project machine again to make leaves on the red paper and shapes...

and I made the bow all by myself using sticky glue dots.

You can feel the 2 papers bumps and the grass...

This is for my Mama, so I had to put a lot of colors on it

because she likes lots of bright colors..."

he did say that his cards were cuter and more fun

than mine ;)

LOL!

He's also hoping to get a lot more comments than me,

so if you have a sec,

skip me and leave him a lil comment, please :)
I would soooo appreciate it!

He's learning how to read, so I can't fib anymore, lol!

He will be reading and sounding out the words ;)

and...

He's my big boy and like all Mommy's with lil boys -

we don't know how long this is going to last,

I fear the day when Mom is no longer the cool one

and he just wants to hang with Dad, Lil Bro and Friends...

Next, meet "Lover Boy"!

I do hope that someone remembers to get me a box of chocolates, hee hee!
