Thomas the Tank Engine Card



My niece & nephew (twins) turned 5 this weekend. I can't believe they are that old!! Unfortunately we weren't able to spend it with them. Their dad is in the Air Force and is stationed in Japan. They've been there for a little over a year now. We keep hoping he'll get transferred to the Pentagon and they'll move to the DC area near us. This is a card I made for my nephew. I hope he's not too old for Thomas the Tank Engine now that he's 5? Last time I saw him before they went to Japan he liked Thomas. I think they'll enjoy the big box of toys we sent more than the cards! I made this card entirely out of punches. It was quick & easy. Hope you had a nice weekend!

WOW!!! Heidi, what an awesome card! My kids would LOVE that! You'll have to share how you did it, please?!

Unfortunatley, I won't be making it to Chantilly! Arlington was my first convention w/Scrap-Mart and the next one I attend will be the Tulsa one in Aug. Perhaps next year I can do a little more traveling! I'd love to meet you! I hope you enjoy the convention. Katie

Heidi!!!! It's a great card and it's perfect for a 5 year old. Heck, you've made me love Thomas the tank all over again, Because that is so super cute. You rock the punch cards just like the embossed cards. It's marvelous just like you!

This is so adorable, they will love it! I can't believe you made it out of punches, you are so creative! How exciting for your nephews to be in another country, what a great experience for them.
