Birthday Card For My Son

For Louie's Birthday Giveaway click HERE

Good morning!

I can not believe that my baby boy will be thirty-one years old on Sunday.  Yes, he was a Father's Day gift to my husband (the best one he ever received).

As some of you that read my blog know, my son and his girlfriend are two little geeks...lol!  They love dinosaurs and keep teasing me that they are going to get married at a dinosaur park near our home...which would be fine with me, one thing I have learned, it isn't about the wedding day, it's about the marriage.  I have watched big, lavish weddings last six months and seen backyard weddings last forever.

So here is my card for my son.


I used Stitchy Bear Digital Stamp Dino and the paper pack Dino Land.  For my sketch I used a Tuesday Morning Sketch that you can see by clicking HERE.  I really like this sketch and thought it was great for showing off the rich colors of the paper I was using.
