Happy Birthday, Joe!

Hi everyone!  I have a million things to do today as it’s  my son’s 13th birthday (gasp!) .  He has six friends spending the night with a midnight run to Game Stop for the MUCH anticipated release of a video game.  Exciting stuff here!  (Wish my luck.)

While searching for an image to use for Joe’s birthday card, I came across this cute Hoodie Jayson image from Whimsie Doodles.  It’s perfect for him.  He’s always cold, like his mom, and loves his hoodies.

My image was colored with Copics, using pencils for the grass.  The happy birthday sentiment is from Tag, You’re it!, an old set I saved from The Kim Hughes Collection.  I stamped the sentiment onto Sentiment Strips Die-namics from My Favorite Things, sponging the edges with Walnut Stain Distress Ink before adhering/stitching.

I finished the inside super-simply.  Plenty of room for signing.  🙂

Thanks for visiting today!  See you soon!
