It Runs in the Family!

I'll be catching up on Holiday content this week but I wanted to share this. My 5 year old son is just as addicted to stamping as I am. For Father's Day this year, I cut my apron strings and let him create his own card. You have no idea how hard this was for me! I have issues, control issues and while stamping is forgiving and lenient with the do-overs, I still freak.

I turned control over to him and I was NOT sad to do so at all! The colors are all his choosing as well as the stamp set and stamping. Behold...




I was so impressed! The first thing I realized is just how different the male eye is in regards to color. I never would have used charcoal and orange together and my instinct with a card is to make it pretty. My son had no problem telling me that a card for Daddy wasn't supposed to be pretty!

For me, this was a wonderful reminder of less is sometimes more!
