Hello, Crafty Makers!
My eldest grandson turned 21 on September 22nd. When he was born, the obstetrician (who was also Jewish) commented that we almost had a "Succoth" baby. This year, his birthday fell on Rosh HaShanah. He came home from college so we could celebrate before the holidays began. I was afraid he would think his card was juvenile, but he did not. He remembered the special dances we used to do when he was a toddler. He had a toy that played different animal sounds, and we had a "special" dance for each one. His favorite music was "Baby Elephant Walk."
My grandson is in art school, so I am never concerned about sticking to masculine colors for his cards! As an artist, particularly a sequential artist, he does not think about colors in that way, but I still wanted to stick with a muted palette. I love bridge cards
The black cardstock was the perfect base. I added a balloon heart and a circle with his age stamped on it. I needed the age to balance the design. My grandson has a display cabinet in his room. One section is dedicated to craft gifts I have given him over the years. He added this to his collection before heading back to school.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
