Another piece of my Costco DP pack was the starting point of this card. Pulled the colours from there and used my Label 4 Nesties in lieu of the circle. I crimped the focal panel for some texture -- it's not striped like it looks in the picture! Have absolutely no idea how that happened?
I just noticed I messed up on the numbers....there is a definite grain texture to the blue paper I used and one number has it one going horizontally and the other number has it going vertically - ugh! Thankfully, my typical little boy won't notice this in the least - at least I hope not LOL!
Thanks for visiting today!

Awesome card, Marisa! Love the bright, bold and fun colors!
Marisa, this is terrific! Great colors and patterns! I love the crimped frame and I have my eyes on those numbers! Awesome card!
Marisa, I love this!!! The texture is fabulous & the crispness is so you :) My middle one has an August b-day (6th), as do I (7th) :)
He will love this wonderful card. It seems like time goes so fast. My son will be 10 in August. Great colors for a boy..
What a super fun birthday card, Marisa! The colors are absolutely fantastic...so kid/boy appopriate and the star and ribbon are perfect! And if your son is anything like mine (he's 13) he can't find a sock that is sitting on the floor right in front of him, so I don't think he's going to notice the shift in pattern on the 11. I'm just sayin'...
How very cool for a boy! Love those big numbers. I think you have a ghost in your craft room adding stripes and messing with your numbers.EEK! Just the same, the card is fab.
Fabulous!! I wouldn't have noticed the difference in the numbers if you hadn't pointed it out, lol!! xx
Awesome card!

What a sweet happy birthday card! Great colors.....and oh how I wish my son were 11 :)
I love the colors, the layout and the numbers with the grain going different ways! After all, 11 year old boys go in different directions from one minute to the next!
*I* didn't even notice the different grains on the numbers, 'till I read your description. It doesn't matter, you're only human, and a wonderful one at that!
