It is my nephew's 16th birthday today. Not the kind of 16th birthday he would have imagined years ago. At 16 they are at a difficult age as to what to use as the subject for their cards. Their uncle picked this image so it was up to me to make into a card.
The image is called "Frankly I'm Shocked" by Gillian Hutchinson over at CraftsUPrint. I know he is supposed to be scary but I think he's cute in another way. In this kit you get the main topper, little tag, lots and lots of sentiments as well as lots of layers of decoupage. I printed it out onto glossy photo paper for a change.
As it is a card for a teenager I have just done some simple matting and layering, added an insert and finished the card off with a die-cut "16", die-cut mount, ribbon and some fibres.
I hope my nephew likes it - if not it is Uncle Paul's fault!!
