Birthday Grunge

As I may have mentioned earlier, I have three grandsons with birthdays in January.  One on the 12th, the 13th and the 14th.  I am so please to announce that I have them all done and just need to write a note, put them into their addressed envelopes, put a stamp on them and get them in the mail.  Whew!  Usually, I'm late.  Grandma is trying to do better!  :-)

Here is the I made for Gage who will be 16.  It's hard sometime to realize that some of my grand-babies are growing up.  Cutesy just doesn't go far these days, especially with teen boys, so I'm transitioning into more grown up looking birthday cards for them.

I love this current sketch from MFT.  I was at a loss as what to do but once I saw the sketch, it just seem to make itself.  I love the clean and simple look.

Stamp Sets:  Gorgeous Grunge and Simply Sketched (Stampin' Up!); Inks:  Pistachio Pudding and Marine Mist (Stampin' Up!); Card Stock:  Pistachio Pudding and Very Vanilla (Stampin' Up!), Little Yellow Bicycle Patterned Paper; Accessories & Tools:  1/8" Silver Mini Brads and Stampin' Dimensionals (Stampin' Up!)
