CAS Challenge 28: masculine
I kinda flaked. I'm not feeling very well today and this is what I came up with. It's more for a young boy. At least it's not pink. Pink is what DS calls girly... he's 14 with Asperger's.
I used the spotlighting technique. It's great to focus in on one thing, which is what I was after for this sentiment. (It's also great when you don't have time to color a huge image. The inside continues the sentiment... "at least for today. Happy Birthday!"

My son also calls pink a girl color, not allowed for boys. Great card! Love how you did the spotlighting. TFS!
