CASwinter10CR HAPPY BIRTHDAY SON

Photo Details

Poster: lisa lara

I am so happy and honored to be in challenge #2 for the Winter CAS DT Search. This is my "family member" card. My son will be turning 21 in Afghanistan this year, this card is for him. Colorful to bring him joy.

I used the "Happy Birthday" sentiment from the set HANGING OUT from CLEAR DOLLAR STAMPS:http://cleardollarstamps.com/proddetail.php?prod=5875

The "son" is computer generated on microsoft word using the font Ravie.

Wish me luck.

Lisa, thoroughly deserved to be in the second part of the challenge, you're fab at CAS cards! This is soooo bright and striking, just perfect for bringing joy while far away from home! Going to my neighbor's home tomorrow night for a prayer time for her son serving in Afghanistan and will be praying for your son as well, Lisa.

Lisa, it touched my heart to read who this is for, and why it is so colorful. God bless your son and your family. I know he will love this. And it is cute to boot! Best of luck in the challenge. :)

I agree, very clever idea with the candles. I also like that it is a shape card, the tied on ribbon is a fun accent!
