The kid next door is turning 16 this month. He was three when we moved in. Time flies! I had this idea in my head for his card and Carla read my mind and gave us a number challenge. I couldn't decide if I wanted to make him a car themed card or a hockey themed card, until I realized I could make him a card with a Bruins license plate on it. So I whipped up this license plate in Microsoft Word while looking at a Googled image of one. It was fun that I could put the month and year on it. So I printed the blank license plate out and then I reprinted just the year sticker on blue paper and glued it to the license plate. I cut the "JAKE 16" out of adhesive vinyl with my ScanNCut (Calibri font) and instead of using transfer tape, which is a bit too sticky for sticking to paper, I used washi tape for the transfer. Worked like a charm! The very last thing was this fake key that I've had for years. It came in some junk mail from a car dealer and you know I couldn't throw that out. I'm glad I kept it. It looks great on this card (and fits perfectly with the December Fan Club theme!).
