Anyways. Fridays mean Friends with Flair, to me anyways. I actually look forward to their Friday challenge...it straightens my day, kind of! Wierd, huh?
So. My boys are 15. Teens mean.....girls. Ugh! lol. One of my boys (they're twins) came to me the other night and asked me if I could possible make a card for him to give to a....GIRL!!!! My heart almost stopped!!! It almost stopped because a) he ASKED ME!!! to make him a card (proud moment--let me wipe my tear!) and b) it is for a girl's birthday! Her birthday is on Monday. Now the pressure is on. What kind of card? Will she like it?? Will she break my son's heart?? EEK! (Anyone else gong/went through this??? Tips, anyone???)
I asked him what type of stamps he wanted me to us, and he went to my ...err..stash!..of Unity stamps. He picked out 2 that really caught his eye. Then it was paper choices. Let me say, the lad has taste...he picked out Fancy Pants Designs 'Trendsetter' pad. That's my boy! :)
So, I made the 2 cards, and let me say, I was sweating! Good grief, if I was sweating to make cards for a girl, what will I be like when he actually dates?? Oh boy!

Anyways, that's it for me.
Be safe. Get crafty.

What a proud day:) Ad so sweet he asked you to make the cards.
awww, that's just so sweet! Loved that he actually got you to make him cards ... I'm sure the girls would love it :)
You work well under pressure. So sweet that he asked you to make these lovely cards.
Oh, how sweet. :) I bet she will love either card!
Oh, how sweet this is that you're making him cards for her. Brings a smile to my face. That's a proud mama moment for you I'm sure. :)
I think that is the most adorable thing ever! How fun that he wanted you to make a card to give and they both turned out great! I think the next logical step is teaching the boys how to make their own cards!
Go mom! Great job.
Very sweet cards.
Your post made me smile. No kids, so no advice. Enjoyed the cards and the story, though!
The cards are so cute!
Both cards cards are adorable. I think its so sweet that he asked you to make a card. My 16 year old step-son asked me if I knew how to make a mum, because he might ask someone to homecoming. I was smiling on the outside, but a little scared...because I have never made a mum!
Fun cards, Laura.
Both cards are great, I'm sure she will love either one. I would be happy too, if my sons asked me to make a card!! Great job mom!!
How fun! Both cards are very sweet - which one did he choose?
Sweet sweet cards!
Very nice cards... :)
Aww, love that he asked you to make a card to give to a girl! :-) Both are cute, I really love the what's shakin' one, makes me giggle every time. :-) TFS.
What an awesome mom you are! And what a wonderful relationship you must have with him for him to ask you! Yes, I agree with everyone that both cards are great - let us know what happens with the girl!!! :)
