Birthday card for my youngest son, who will be 32 on Monday. (How does that happen?) This image has always touched my heart, but now that Jason has a small son, it means even more to me. Jason's wife is SCS's very own JamiePTS, and they are expecting another baby in December! The inside sentiment is from SU's Smarty Pants and reads "You're never too old to do goofy stuff". That saying is so perfect for my son!
This is for the Twisted Sister Challenge to use two shades of brown- my fav color (thanks Sylvia!) and another color, two nesties, and twine. The bg paper came pre-cut for scrap booking, and I love the fall leaf motif.
Thanks for looking!

Thirty-two!!! Goodness gracious, don't they grow up fast these days!!! LOL, I know how proud you are of BOTH of your boys, and now you not only have them, but a grandson to make these great 'guy' cards for - maybe there will be another boy, or maybe a girl for you to spoil come December!
Love this image of father and son, framed in those warm brown tones, with the die cut leaf BG. the brads and the twine give it that special 'manly' look that I know Jason will love - your son will definitely feel the love from you and Bubba! Memories of his own boyhood with his Dad!

Pat what a handsome card! I love it. I have pictures of my husband on a horse with his son and then years later with each grandchild. Gives me the same feeling as this card does. I'm sure this will be so loved. My baby was 41 in January! I have never seen a card you made that was not beautiful in every way. You to put your heart on paper. I'm so glad our paths crossed. Maybe sometime after your move I can come meet you irl. Once you're a free woman!! Have a wonderful and blessed Easter.

What an awesome masculine card, Pat! Wow, 32 years old, I had my boys late in life, so I can only hope to still be around when my boys turn 32 and have children of their own! You're a "free" lady soon, yippie!!! Blessings, sweet friend! Kathy

First let me say, Congratulations!!! Aren't you gonna be a busy bee! Love the card. I know Jason will to. The time does fly by, but we wouldn't want them to stay young forever. There would be no Lil' Jon if that happened. lol Enjoy Happy Easter.

Yowzers!!! This card is incredible! I totally LOVE all of the hardware, the colors and the twine! That is image awesome........reminds me of some pictures that I have taken of my son and and grandson and another one of my grandson and my hubby. In the latter picture, they both are bare chested with their red swimsuits on and are walking away from the camera. Love that picture! This is one fine card, my friend! Your son will LOVE it!
