It's Your Day SFYTT

So... that is officially the longest I have gone without stamping! I was able to clear away the mess from last week's SFYTT card to create this week's SFYTT card. I am *finally* starting to feel like myself again. Thank you so much for all of your well wishes. You are all so good to me!
We have a birthday party to go to tomorrow for two of my nephews. They are having a Robot themed birthday, so I decided to combine this week's sketch and my need for two Robot cards. I think this is the first time I have inked up this little guy from "Toy Box". I love that set and it has been so handy for so many occasions. I actually think I used this set for their cards last year. I was also excited to be able to pair it with the new "Star Prints" set from Papertrey Ink. I used two of the sentiments and one of the stars. I really liked making similar cards for the boys, but changing up a few things on each. I decided since they looked so much alike, that I would add their initials to the side panel.

I kept them simple and opted for fewer embellishments. You never know where little kid cards will end up. LOL!

Your card is very cute, I appreciated your links to the other blogs and I am REALLY glad you are on the mend. So many people have been down with the bug this last month and it does seem to linger.
