Jack's 13th Birthday Card


We had our first real frost on Wednesday night but the days are still quite pleasant. Some of the trees are losing their leaves but a lot of them still have green leaves. They may lose them before they change colour this year…..at least in Southern Ontario. I understand they are very colourful in Northern Ontario.

Today one of our grandsons turns 13! Remember turning into the teen years….and how awesome it was to be a teenager!! Jack’s a great kid and he’s a pleasure to be around. He loves sports and music. Last year I made him a sports card so this year I did a music card….he’s been taking guitar lessons for about a year and is very good.  His 10 year old brother takes drum lessons....noisy house but my daughter said she would rather listen to them making music than playing video games!


The background is Distress Inks Mustard Seed; Chipped Saffire and Faded Jeans and maybe some Dusty Concord. Once it dried water droplets were thrown on to create those white spots. Black Soot was sponged around the edges. The guitar and ‘You Rock’ are part of an Inkadinkado set that I use a lot. They were heat embossed with black embossing powder. The sentiment is a black peel-off. The 13th was die cut using two different Cuttlebug alphabet dies. He loved it!....and that’s all that matters.

That’s all for a sunny yet cool Friday, October 27, 2017. Have a wonderful, safe and creative weekend everyone. See you Monday!

Cheers

Violet
