My DH's birthday was not long ago. My son approached me about a birthday card for him. I told him I would help him with paper choices and sketch to select from, but I was not going to help him beyond that. I would supply other things if he couldn't find them himself...like the tape and how to use the Big Shot. ( Why did I insist on HIM doing it...you may ask? My DH gave me no card for my birthday ... not even a gift. I even suggested a little note would thrill me. My birthday came...nothing...not even a note. Therefore, I wasn't about to make a card for DH and I really think the time my son put into his father's birthday card would be remembered and mean more at the end.
So here is his card. I keep a small box of colored images and die cuts ready for a "moment's notice" and he chose the fun
From the Heart Stamp called
Birdbrain Brew and a beer mug I had bought awhile back from Silhouette. I'm very proud of his completed card.

Well done. Your son did a great job. When I first saw the card and saw the colored image, I thought what wow coloring and he must take about his mom. Then I read that you keep a box of colored images on hand... Bet your husband love his card!
ReplyDeleteYour son really made that? What a fab job! So....your DH still hasn't gotten the hint?
ReplyDeleteNice job on your son's card. Next birthday, just go out and get yourself something real nice, and then thank him for it!!
