All aboard the 3 Birthday Train

My friend asked me to make a card for her grandson who is turning 3 who loves trains so this is what I made for her. The sentiments are from TLC, Create.  The "3" is a digital image from the Sweet Shoppe.  The train I stamped from the Alley Way (which I think is out of business now). I made this a pop up box card.

All Aboard the birthday train!

Today is my best friend's husbands birthday.  He is retired from the railroad so it is perfect to use this image and sentiment from TLC.  We were asked to go out to dinner with them so I have the card ready to go.  I am still working on my gift.
