Birthday boy

Yesterday we celebrated DS’ birthday.  Regular readers will know that he is a bit of a logo lover, so it has become a bit of a tradition (and challenge!!) to make his birthday cards incorporating the Converse logo.
This year, things were made easier as DS has developed a musical interest – he is an amazing drummer (mainly self taught, with some help from his school’s music teacher) and he is teaching himself the acoustic guitar.

The guitar card is actually 3D, although the picture doesn’t really show this.  I made the strings using a needle & thread.

DS also had another handmade card.  DSC00493 This is from our dear friends, Paul & Hazel and is one of Hazel’s lovely creations (or maybe Paul made it??).   Hazel recently got some new “toys” to create with.  See here for more of her (their??) creations.  I’m not sure who has been card making and therefore, who the credit should go to – I know it is Hazel’s hobby but also know, from reading Paul’s blog, that he couldn’t resist having a go too!
