Joe Chatter Box

This sweet little guy is our chatter box.  Non-stop chatter box.  Very adorable...but non stop chatter.  
  • So...he has learned to say, "'Cuse Me..." but then keeps on talking when we're in mid conversation :)
  • Wants to know when everything is happening, "today, tomorrow, yesterday...and show me how many on your fingers?"
  • Has a great vocabulary...especially when he's describing his "Star Wars Guys" as agile.
  • Results in us still calling him his first nickname of "Quackers" to which he replies, "My name is NOT Quackers...it is Marcel Paul Mangan."
  • Lots of adults friends saying...he is so sweet...he comes right up sits by me and has a great conversation.  Not a shy bone in this little guys body.
  • Keep on chatting sweet boy...we love you. 
 Ingredients: Real Red, Old Olive Paper/Ink; Tart  & Tangy Stamps; So Happy for You Stamps; Basic Black Ink; Old Olive Ribbon

And here's a fun teacher thank you card which will probably be for one of this little chatter box's teachers.  Thanks to the 411 challenge for another awesome sketch.  This Tart & Tangy Stampin' Up set is one of my all time favorites!

Cute card Lynn - love the apples.

Enjoy your chatterbox while you can - I am lucky to get two words strung together by my 17 year old!

Adorable! Our youngest is our chatterbox and he is only 2. He is at the stage of repeating himself endlessly until he gets a response. Love the bright colours, a classic card.

Love your card :) Love the story about your chatterbox more :) OMG he is just too cute!! We found a picture of my "little" one last night that looks similar to the one you have with Marcel's hand in front of his face and I almost cried...remembering just how adorable they are at that age!! Now my "little" one is 11 years old and 5'8" tall :( When did that happen?!?!

Perfect card for a teacher! I named one of the stamps sets I designed Chatterbox after the antics of my four year old, sounds quite like your Marcel there.
