I've been a bit busy these past few weeks and I just haven't had time to sit down and craft until today.....and I have to admit that I struggled! lol
It's my sons birthday at the end of this month and I just know if I didn't get a start on his birthday card soon....his birthday would be here in the blink of an eye and I would probably end up buying a store bought one for convenience. I know 'store bought' are very much swear words in the world of card makers, but sometimes ya just gotta do what ya gotta do! lol
Anyhoooooooo to avoid such a situation, I set to work and just kept his card very plain and simple. However, I just HAD to include red because it's his favourite colour!
You can't see it in the photo but I've added texture to my base card stock using my Papertrey Ink Linen Impressions plate! That plate is my all time fave.....LOVE IT!
I kept wanting to add a few different elements to this card, but I knew he'd love it just the way it was. He isn't into all the fancy schmancy kinda stuff and while I thought all the additions would look rather cool.....at the end of the day the card isn't for me, it's for him - so this is how it shall stay! lol
Hope you like it!
