Happy Birthday David!

Today’s card features a card for my grandson David’s birthday. He is turning 21 years old! It’s not an SU image but I did use SU products on it. For my close relatives I always try and use an image that means something to them. If SU doesn’t carry something I can use, I find it elsewhere. In this case, David’s first car was Navy Blue Mustang. He totaled it… Read More »

Happy Birthday Troy

Today’s card is for my grandson, Troy. He is not a sailor but Ventura is right at the ocean in California so I thought the sailor theme would be appropriate. When they are young (over 18 but under 30), you just don’t know what they really like! I used the Come Sail Away Designer Series Paper for the banner and background panel. The banner was generated using the retired Thank… Read More »
