Stylin' Stampin' Squad Blog Hop April

Welcome to the April Stylin' Stampin' Squad Blog Hop. This month is all about Kids which is great because I have a few of those and am always needing ideas for their birthdays or their friends birthdays. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's creations because they're always awesome! As you hop along, please be sure to comment and show some love on every blog! We are always excited to hear from our followers! You should have just left stop number #13 on the Stylin' Stampin' Squad Blog Hop - Kim R. of Stamping with Kim. If so, you are in the right spot. If a link doesn't work or you get off track, you will find the full blog hop lineup below. 

I decided to go with a Super Hero theme because I have three boys and they love all things super heroes. When the Occasion's Catalog was released one of the first stamp sets I ordered was Cool Kid because I knew it would come in handy with my boys. I may have had Captain America on the brain as far as colors went because I chose to use Real Red, Pacific Point, and Daffodil Delight. It is Bright and cheery. I used the Starburst Framelit as a layer because it most resembled those burst you see with the words POW! in them. This card is perfect for the next little boys birthday party we attend.
Items Used:
Stamp Set- Cool Kids
Paper- Fresh Prints DSP, Pacific Point, Real Red, Daffodil Delight, Whisper White
Ink- Basic Black, Pacific Point, Real Red
Tools- Big Shot, Starburst Framelits, Circle Framelits
For my second project I decided to make this cute little matchbox that I used my Punch Board to make. I saw a video on YouTube by Diane Dimich on how to make the matchbox and you can view it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApIzFP9m_fY These boxes are easy to make and only require a 6x6 piece of card stock or DSP. I can use these for party favors with candy or to tuck a special little gift into. 
Items Used:
