Control Fre@k

It was my youngest son's Birthday yesterday, he was twenty three and this is the card that I created for him.


I used the Echo Park Team Spirit Boy collection, I have the digital collection, I think digital is much better because you can resize everything and they are much easier to store.  Also I don't know about you but I always have favourites that I want to use again and again along with some papers that I never use, with digital collections you can just print the ones you are going to use.


I computer generated the Happy Birthday and used Hunkydory dies to cut the SON.

We all went out for a lovely meal last night, it is the first time I have been inside a restaurant for a very long time, we have eaten in the garden of our favourite pub but not been inside for ages - it was so nice to actually celebrate a Birthday by eating out for a change.

Thank you for visiting my blog today, please leave a comment so that I can come and visit you.

What a perfect card for a gamer. I love these papers and the design. I just ate inside last week for the first time in 18 months. I agree, it was a treat.

What an eye-catchingly fantastic design! I really like the mix of colours used for the word "son". It works terrifically with the vibrancy and energy of this cool card.

Happiest b-day wishes to your son!
