Dump Truck for James!

Sometimes I really {{heart}} my Cricut!! (Okay, well ... I love it all the time I use it, but that's beside the point!). I was able to create this hexagonally-shaped card by welding a couple of hexagons together ... how ca-YOOT is THAT??? And what's NOT to love about this little dump truck?? I swear, just lookin' at it makes me happy!

This is for my cousin's little guy, James. James is turning 3 this week ... oh, how I miss my kids being little like that! I swear, I barely blinked and they are all too big! Sigh ... I guess that's just how it goes. Too bad I can't have a "do-over" ...

Spring has finally decided to show up here ... I'm soooo glad!! We had more snow again last Saturday (seriously!), so I'm hoping we've seen the last of it. Supposed to get up in the low 70's today ... here's hopin'!!

Wendy, I rarely comment on any of the blogs I subscribe to, but this one is definitely an exception. I love this card. It is one of the cutest little boy cards I have ever seen! I, too, have the cricut, but I rarely use it, but I really need to get it out and start using it! You have inspired me, gf!

That is too cute. Do you sell the cards or pieces so that people can assemble the cards? We are having my son a Tonka party this year and I have been unable to find a card that I like. This is so cute!! :) Thanks!
