HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEVE !

Hi Everyone

Today is a special day in the House of Hearts . .. .. it is our youngest Son's birthday.

Happy Birthday Steve!!

I know he sometimes checks out my blog to see what I have been up to so I didn't want to post his card before I knew he had opened it .. .. and he has now!!  

Steve is mad about guitars and music and has more guitars than most women have pairs of shoes!!

I have tried to make this guitar look like one we bought him years ago.  I wonder if he will recognise it. LOL!!

I love the image and thought of him as soon as I saw it .. .. but it is so busy that you can't put very much alongside it .. .. even on a larger card base it looked "too much" with anything else added.

So it stayed looking like this:




This used:

Image:  Just Inklined "Rocking"
Sentiment:  Computer Generated using font "snap"
Backing Paper:  Nitwits "On A High Note Too"
ProMarkers and Distress Ink
Metal photo corners that have been in my stash for so many years it is unbelievable!!

So that is it.  

I have just sang Happy Birthday to the birthday boy before he heads off to work and then we are out to celebrate tonight.  

Have a good day everyone.  I hope the sun shines for you.

I am still trying to get stock together for the Festival alongside wedding work .. .. so I am now making use of (or should I say a mess of) the living room, dining room, kitchen, 1 bedroom and the craft pod.

Love

  5. Great card Jules!
    Love the image

    It would suit my son that one, he has so many guitars and instruments he has a room at the bottom of his garden to store them all in.

  14. Perfect image for anyone who loves guitars. Your use of the corners on the image really gave me some ideas, as I have some large images that are challenging to know just what else to add. These corners made the image look so framed...and polished off the look so well. I hunted for the heart, must have missed it! TFS
