21

DS was 21 recently.  Mind you, I don’t feel old enough to be the mum of a 21 year old!!

The first card was a “pop-up”box card.  Three of the flaps were decorated with pics of DS at various ages,  and the front flap was covered in sheet music washi tape with a nice big 21.  Using a 2 and a 1 paper clip for the greeting part, 2 keys and a stamped quote, the card soon came together.  Please note: the personal greeting has been erased using paint shop as I forgot to photograph it before I wrote on it (duh!)

The second card is simply the outline for a number 21 printed on card, then using my Rotring pens, zentangled.  I had great fun doing the zentangles and was pleased with the result.  Mounted onto a gold card (embossed with my gear embossing folder & swiped with a gold ink pad) – a simple but effective result.
