Becoming A Teenage Boy.


One of Liam's 13th Birthday Cards

Good morning everyone, I'm sharing a card I made a couple of weeks ago for my son's 13th Birthday.  It's pretty basic masculine card, if he had been a daughter this card would have been totally different as I would have add so many more embellishments and bling, something I couldn't do for my 13 year old son.
I feel what I did use was enough as this image told the story.
In the image you'll see a round black pillow my son has one just like it, it's like a mini bean bag and very stretchy which he takes to boarding school and loves they're called
 "Cuddley Buddlies", so as soon as I saw the round pillow I knew I had to colour it black to match his, and I had to buy him a black one so it matched his "Manchester United Duvet Cover" for his bed (and they say girls are fussy).  But the funnest thing was as soon as he saw his card he said Mum you put my Cuddley Buddly in.  Well I didn't but Mo Manning did in this wonderful teenage digital image. 


Finished card using 'Paul Typing' by Mo Manning.

Hugs
