Ryan's Birthday Card



Good morning everyone!!! I'm a little brain dead this morning...I worked the last two days and now I'm pooped!!! Since I only work 2 days a month, it takes me all month to recover...LOL!!! No, not really...but my feet sure do need a foot rub!!!! Anyway....my grandson Ryan is having his 11th birthday tomorrow and this is the card I made for him. A couple of years ago I bought him a birthday card because I was a little short of time and he was really disappointed that his grandma didn't make him one so I won't make that mistake again!!! It's really kinda nice to know that he really likes getting my home-made cards!!

I used an adorable stamp from Stampavie called Skateboard Dude. He was colored with copics and I used the colors from the Stampin Royalty challenge. The papers are from My Minds Eye's Lime Twist, the sentiment is from Rubbernecker , and the ribbon from PTI finishes it off.

I made this for a few other challenges:
1. Stamp n Doodles - birthdays
2. Stamps R Us - card for a kid
3. Card Crafter's Circle - birthdays

Thanks for stopping by...have a great day!!!!

The color of the tag with the background of the card is matching and eye-catching.
