Hey,
Ever have one of those days, where the events of the day make you realise how OLD you are!
LOL.
Today my Godson Ben is turning 16, I can totally remember the day he was born, I can't believe he is already 16 and that his Mother and I have been friends for 30 years - EEEK!!!
Ben is totally into fashion and so I wanted his card to reflect that.
I smooshed a piece of watercolour paper in some distress ink and dried it off, I repeated this several times until I was happy with the background. I then stamped some stars randomly, to add a bit more interest to the background.
To tie in with the fashion aspect, I added a Dina Wakely Scribbly Man.
I didn't want to cover the beautiful image / background, so I heat embossed part of the sentiment (freebie from AMuse) onto Vellum and added a die-cut for the rest of it.
Super happy with this, I think it's perfect for a fashion forward 16 year old.
His gift is the same thing that I give all my godchildren at this age - a weekend away with me - Ben I think has drawn the lucky straw, as now that we live in NYC, this gift means he is coming here.

I lurves this! So stylish and cool, even though cool is not a cool thing to say these days! Your godson is a very lucky chap to get to spend time with you, wherever in the world that might be x
