Birthday Boy 6

Thank you so much for visiting today - I am especially happy as today is my Birthday!!!!  I'm hoping that my DH will be whisking me off for a lovely meal this evening to celebrate!

It is my youngest Grandson's 6th birthday on 13 March and this is the card I have made for him.  I do hope he likes it, the image reminds me so much of him.  He is such a cheeky character and always getting into scrapes and mischief!!  The little dog on the back of the bike looks like my Grandsons' dog Disco so this stamp by Lili of the Valley is the perfect image to use for his card.  My crafting pal Annie was kind enough to let me stamp this image from her stamp stash recently but I think I'll be adding him to my own stash very soon!

The background papers are magazine freebies, as is the birthday boy sentiment.  The chipboard number 6 was in my stash but it was white, so I coloured it with an orange ProMarker and added Glossy Accents over the top. 

I coloured the image with ProMarkers and added Glossy Accents to the bike frame to make it 'pop'.

This is a very simple layout but I am very pleased with the final result!

Hope you'll be back again soon when I will have more projects to share with you.

I'll be so pleased when March is done and dusted! I love the card you made with this cute chap, and your grandson is sure to love it too.
