Happy Birthday to My Son

Hello, here is the card i made for a very special young man, my son.  I am sharing it with you today as I know that examples of cards for men and boys are less common than those for women and girls.  I decided to also share my project over at the Arnold Grummer Paper Making blog where I am on the Design Team.  By following the link here you can see more details of how I made this card.

I hope that you are inspired to make some masculine type cards too.  

Thank you for visiting today.
