Happy Birthday Son

Today is a special day as it is our youngest son's 23rd birthday.

When children become adults it can become hard to make cards for them.  I saw this digital kit from CraftsUPrint by Gillian Hutchinson called "You Old Dog" and thought this would be perfect.

In this set wonderful set you will get 7"x7" dog themed toppers, decoupage, a blank insert, text insert and lots of sentiments.

I have used a stone backing paper from my stash and some papers from Summertime Designs.  On the striped backing paper I stamped with a paw print clear stamp.

As the card did not need to be posted I printed off the main sheet three times so I managed to get 7 layers in all for the grumpy looking bulldog.

The card has been finished off with Glossy Accents put on the screw heads, stamped sentiment, "go fetch" sentiment stamp and then I die-cut the number "2" and "3" six times and glued it on top of each other to get some dimension.

I am entering this card into the following challenges: 

Creatalicious Challenge - Anything goes with the option of circles

CD Sunday Plus - Anything goes (digital download from CraftsUPrint)
A Bit More Time to Craft - Anything goes
