Sniff. My boys went off to school today. First day of Kindergarten and Pre-K. They were so excited. And nobody cried--not even me! Keep an eye for adorable pics on Facebook.
Here is my card for Lisa's Labor Day challenge. This little Tiddly Inks boy wants to be a train conductor when he grows up. I've combined this with Tiddly Inks Challenge #217 Boys Boys Boys. I love making little boy cards. Probably because I have two little boys. I printed out the digi twice and did a reverse spotlight technique (TLC46) and used SC76 for my layout. My boys have really cute green pajamas with navy blue trains all over them, so those were my inspiration for the background here. I finished off the card with a cute train brad and a paper clip because I'm hooked on paper clips right now.

I cried when my eldest went off to Kindergarten (and college). Fun card with the train engineer theme. Your boys will have a wonderful day!!

Oh my Sis Jennifer this is totally too cute and absolutely adorable. When I opened your gallery this one caught my eye!! It took me to a special young man who loves trains and plays they all day with his gma!! I have also hanai him as my grandson for his irresistible and no way can pass him up. Lil Jack is definitely a special young man.
