So many of the Eyelet Outlet brads are perfect for realistic cards … but today, I'm looking at my brad collection through the eye of creating my own Toy Story.
I started with March of the Toys Designer Paper from the Carta Bella Toy Box Collection and then created my own Toy Box Parade. I started with a few pieces of Building Block Washi Tape to help ground the parade (remember you can click on the pictures to see a larger view).
Next I went through my entire brad stash and pulled out any that I thought would be found in a Toy Box.
I added a winter sled (one of the new Fall Brads), a fun little convertible car (doing a wheelie for my brother), a motorcycle, cartoon fish, a stuffed giraffe, a fun Monster, a Toy Army Man … and of course some building blocks.
I finished with a dump truck (one of our favorite toys because we could play in the dirt and rocks), another wheelie car, a stuffed lion and round brads for some bouncing balls.
I had so much fun creating my card, there will likely be more toy-themed designs in my future.
