Birthday greeting for my youngest son who turns 30 on Friday. We just returned from Wyoming, from delivering his wife (JamiePTS). This photo is from one of our jaunts to the hills. Saw some beautiful countryside, but the best part was seeing the smiles on Jason and Jamie's faces as they were reunited.
I am kinda stuck on easel cards, but love the effect they have. The scenery was done using Stampscapes and SU's Watercolor Mini's, and was framed using SU's Top Note, and placed on the Cuttlebug backing.
This card is also to honor Theresa, our FS165. I don't think I have ever spent an entire day choosing a card to case before, but with a gallery like this, it was hard to choose! Theresa, my favs file is full of your work, and I smiled to see you in the spotlight today! Thank you for sharing your incredible work, and your heart. And thank you for your encouraging comments.
I used Life is Good for inspiration, changing the colors, image and placement of images.
I hope to be back to case another!
Thanks for looking!

Oh Pat this is just amazing, what a brilliant idea to use that photo of Jason and Jamie, I love how you made the scenery to match the background of the photo, what neat little little guns, and of course your Top Note I think I am going to be busy trying to case this one for my sons birthday. TFS.

WOW-Pat-what a delightful Birthday card for your baby boy! Both he and Jamie will LOVE this card! The best thing, it is an easel card, so they can just leave it out on DISPLAY as soon as they open it and read it! LOVE your scenery card, it is as UNIQUE and BEAUTIFUL as are your kids!
