As the grandsons move into their upper teens, making their birthday cards becomes more of a challenge.
No more cute animals or ferocious dinosaurs.
This card is for my oldest grandson, who will be 19 shortly.
I considered a Tim Holtz Crazy Bird,
but decided to just use the Crazy Bird party hat.
Papers are from CTMH and the die cut is by Memory Box.
Challenges:
Country View February Craft Challenge - Black and White plus one (yellow, in this case)

YOu are so right about making a birthday card for a young teen being a challenge. I have a 14 yr old grandson and I share your thoughts. I think that you nailed ti with the one. Thanks for sharing it with us at SEize the Birthday.
