First-Born Birthday

 My oldest son is having a birthday today.  He's quite the special man - wonderful son, loving husband and terrific father of two.  He never asks for anything, but is always available and willing to help.  So I decided to make a simple, festive card for him, as he doesn't like being in the spotlight.


I love the bright colors!  Putting them against black really makes them pop!  Each strip (Bermuda Bay, Magenta Madness, Gorgeous Grape, Granny Apple Green and Mango Melody) is 3/4" and is embossed for some extra texture.


The Playful Alphabet letters were backed with Foam Adhesive Sheets prior to cutting them out, so they "pop" too!  And I cut the "birthday" die (retired) three times, slightly off-setting each layer/color so they look like bright shadows.


A simple card for a wonderful son!  Happy Birthday, Evan!
