Commissioned Birthday Card


I was asked to make a very very basic birthday card for a little boy who loves looking at motorbikes.  He hates cards with frills on so that was quite a difficult one for me.  Thankfully I was told it would be perfect.  I used some plain card stock from my stash and used some Kanban toppers I received from a friend on Joanna Sheen's Forum.

This card fits the following challenges:

Die Cuts R Us - No designer papers - certainly a very hard one for me and I doubt I'll be alone on this one
Fab n Funky - It's Childish
Raise the Bar - No stamped or digi image - another hard one for me.

    haha! I love this little boy's honesty - no frills indeed. What a great card with the motorbike pictures! You did a great job not stamping, and yet it will bring a huge smile to his face. :D Thank you for joining us at Raise The Bar this week!
