Manly Monday-A Grand Kid Lego Card

Today's Manly Monday is a little more "playful" then usual because I made paper ©Lego blocks! In all honesty most men are just kids at heart and thought this could be a fun blast from the past card to send. I used the A Grand Kid stamp set for the greetings and made one even special for a grand kid in mind. This is great card to make using scraps even!

Here are all 4 of my cards! Remember I made four each Monday to help build my Manly Card collection (and for little boys too)

*Happy Birthday Card

I used 2 different methods to attach the block circles. One with glue dots and one with just the Tombow liquid glue. I liked the glue dot the best because it gave it just a little "pop" to make it look like a real ©Lego block.

*Grandkid Card 

You can make this cards too by following my steps below and by shopping at my online store.
