This is the birthday card I made for my nephew turning 17 this coming week. It was not easy for me to create a design for a teenage boy! I think he will like it. I am happy with how it turned out - cute but not too juvenile. He doesn't actually skateboard but it makes me think of being a teenager.
Stamped image and colored with alcohol markers. Bird matches green color used in cardstock layer. Normally I would have done the road in reverse colors (blacktop with white dashes) but using white for the larger strip allowed the perfect place for the sentiment, and I didn't have to cover up more of the patterned paper by adding the sentiment elsewhere.
