Three 

On January 2nd my granddaughter will turn 3 years old. She has been an absolute light in our family. Especially during this traumatic time. She keeps the vibes happy and keeps us all too busy to dwell on the negatives. 
Phyllis Harris knows the embodiment of childhood, I swear she has drawn some of these just for me! 😏 
This card features the kit, All About Balance. This little illustration is definitely Auri, she's learning balance and actually lays down the basketball stand to practice. (Future gymnast?) How about that 3 on the t-shirt?! And, if you look closely you can see the little band-aid on her ankle. LOL!! I mean, come on! It couldn't be more perfect! 


I colored her with color pencils and accented her with gel pens. I used some printed paper from an old paper stack from DCWV, a banner die, and an alpha die for her name. The gifts and teddy bear are little bits I borrowed from other kits, Joy & Things & More Blessed to Give.



Thanks for stopping by! Don't forget to leave a comment!

  17. Aww. So cute. Auri will cherish this card forever. I’m sure she already has a collection of beautiful cards from Grandma. This card is special and Auri will grow up feeling she too is especially loved. Great mix of stamps from different sets. I’ve got to remember to look at all my stamps when making a card. Thanks!
