21 Again

My eldest son asked me to create a 21st Birthday card for a friend of his and this is what I came up with.

I used some very old papers from my stash along with some dark blue card stock.  The 'happy' is a Tim Holtz die and the 'BIRTHDAY' was made using my Memory Box Alphabet Tile Letters, they are actually square but I decided to trim them into a different shape.  I used some old number dies that I have lost the packaging for and added some hand made card candi.


Thank you for popping in today and thank you for all of the lovely comments that you leave - they are all read and very much appreciated.

  12. A tricky age group to make cards to, but this is spot on. With no stamps used this is perfect for our challenge at Inkspirational...

  16. Thanks for your sweet comment. re Monte and the heat, at the moment he is in the laundry which he can go outside as at the moment he has an upset tummy, change of died they say from being away for three weeks so he is re adjusting to his normal good dry food. If that settles he comes inside, if it gets way too unbearably hot he comes inside. At the moment it's only early but the heat is not affecting him at all or us, we do get the breeze from the lake and ocean so we are lucky.xx
