Today is my nephew's 30th birthday! I'll admit that the card I made for him might look a bit juvenile with the (not black and gray) raccoon holding balloons, but I thought the image was cute, festive, and one that adds a pop of color. Why is the raccoon not black and gray? Well . . . coloring with black ink is scary--especially on a small image where a very dark color can all of a sudden become way too much of a very dark color.
I wanted to make sure this little guy looked as cute as the balloons he's holding. Even though this card was made for a 30-year-old man, it still needed some coordinating sparkly gems. Can you spy the lighter green gems that are beside some of the die-cut letters on the darker green paper? I was hoping they wouldn't blend in as much as they did--they're scattered between the die-cut letters on the dark green paper.
A coordinating pocket was adhered to the inside of the card to hold a nice little check. Isn't that what every 30-year-old nephew wants for his birthday?
While I was trying to take photos of the card, my sweet little Jack photo bombed--and totally stole the focus! But look at his adorable little face. Who could be mad at that?
Happy birthday, Bryson!!!
