A 21st Birthday Card for a special Lad

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How is your week going? Sometimes things get so hectic that it is hard to find time to blog. I am sure lots of you know what this is like.

A couple of weeks ago there was an appeal for 21st birthday cards for a lad who wasn't expected to live past the age of three. So I decided to make a card for this lad's very special birthday.


I have had a stack of foiled card in my stash for a while. It was nice to actually use some on a project. 


I had a piece of one of my inky backgrounds left over and I cut the Spellbinders hot air balloon to go over it. The bird dies came free with a magazine recently. 


This numbers are X-cut dies and them make quite a statement. 


I hope he liked his card. I did see some photos there were lots of cards and he looked very happy. 

I would like to enter the following challenges:
Challenge 224 at the Cardz 4 Guyz Challenge blog
Challenge 125 at the Dies R Us Challenge 
Challenge 118 at Scrapy Land Challenges
The July Challenge at Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper Challenge
Challenge 291 at the Brown Sugar Challenge blog
Challenge 7 at the Rainbow Card Challenge

Happy Crafting

Hugs Jackie

    oh that was so thoughtful of you.
    I love your design the hot air balloon looks beautiful.
    I too have those bits of card I believe they are Kanban.
    I really like how you have used them for your background.
    Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
