Here is my grandson Lincoln’s birthday card this year. Grands grow up so fast… especially when they live far away, and you don’t get to see them very often.
He loves Loves LOVES trucks so thought a bright red firetruck might catch his eye for a second. Stickles on the truck’s top light does catch the light now and then.

This is really adorable and so fun for a little boy’s birthday!! Love the “fire” strips going across your design! 🙂
Oh, Susan, this is adorable, and I love how you’ve used the eyelets for the wheels! And sweet washi tape too! Yes, our grandsons are far away too, so I totally understand how hard it is! He’s going to love this! Hugs!
He’s going to love this! Cute Washi tape, and fantastic idea for the eyelets on the wheels! The Stickles are a great bit of sparkle. They certainly do catch the light. Too cute, Susan!
Awww so cute, like the flame strip too with it, I can only imagine how fast he is growing and how hard it is to be far away
Adorable little boy’s card! Love the fire strip of paper too! Perfection!
This is so cute, and sure to delight your precious DGS. 2 is such a fun age and every little boy likes firetrucks! I like those flaming panels too!
I think all boys are born loving trucks, not sure why but my two sure did. I am in your boat in that both my sons (grown) live thousands of miles away and I won’t get to see my grandchildren. 🙁 I’m sure he appreciates the beautiful handmade cards that his grandma is sending. Thanks for joining us at Cards in Envy this week. Take care.
Your card is super adorable! Love the cute fire truck and great colors. 🙂
Happy birthday to your grandson! My son loved firetrucks when he was two! Wish I was a stamper then!
Perfect boy card, Susan. Your grandson will love it.
