Teenage


outside 
My youngest child hits his teens today so from now on I can just put my feet up and relax. (Haha, just joking!) 

I've just been wrapping his presents before he gets up. I thought I had a suitable roll of wrapping paper in the stair cupboard but it seems to have vanished. So one of his gifts is wrapped in pink hearts and the other in snowflakes on kraft (or 'winter birthday' as we say in the crafting world!) 

Anyway, my card.... I used the Silhouette digital cutting machine. I used a purchased sports shirt cutting file and, using the Silhouette Studio software, I made it into a pop-up design. The colours are a vague nod to his favourite team, Arsenal. Then I designed and cut the sentiment.

    A masculine card for a thirteen year old....that might be the most challenging card there is! Your card for your son is just perfect. Very masculine and appropriate for a new teenager. We are so pleased that you joined us this week for our masculine challenge at Watercooler Wednesday. Karen - DT

    How fab to make a pop-up football shirt in his favourite teams colours, that's super cool and I bet he loved it. I hope he's had an awesome 13th birthday and you too Marina, we Moms celebrate too even though we find ourselves pondering just where time went x

    How cool! I love the added dimension and red/white/black is such a classic color combo.
