Birthday card for my oldest son, who shares my love of B.B. King and his soulful guitar playing. I cased this card by Linda (labullard), (who cased it from Cindy Canada.) Thank you so much for sharing your work here, and giving the inspiration!
It was a lot to take on, and it is late, but I know my son will love it. His guitar is his comfort, and has brought joy to all of the family. I love to hear him play! He once had the chance to see B.B. in person, and called me from the concert. It was wonderful!
So son, here's to you, your life and the things you love! Happy Birthday. Always, Mama
Here's some for you. Thanks for looking!

Hey, sweetie, I did not know that about your boy. You find the PERFECT designs to celebrate your family. What a treasure. Maybe when he gets to a "certain age" he will pull this from his treasure stash and remember the hands that crafted in love for him. YUP, I'm keeping that picture in my mind

This card is going to be one your Son cherishes the most because of the love you poured into the making of it!! The TH die you added to the side really makes it like an extra special icing on the cake. I have had the same card in my favorites like forever - or at least since it was uploaded - since my grandson plays and so do I (occasionally anyway) Love the sewn BG piece to back up the colors.
Love the story you added about him going to the BB King concert - how wonderful that he wanted to share that excitement with you!! HUGS!
