The important thing is that we had is Bday last night and he really liked the card. I could tell because he wanted to take it to show his girlfriend. He kept feeling it to try and figure out how I got the shirt to match the back round DP. If he only knew how long it took me to get that glittered DP to go through the printer then see the lines to cut it out and after color and cut the collar and cuffs (they were so small) so they weren't the same as the DP print. I also added my own bit of sparkle on the foam from the beer (my son is always commenting about glitter being on everything I make).

Hi Mary, what a great card - love the colours and sounds like you had a difficult job with paper piecing, but what a wonderful finish. That someone likes their card is the main thing, I've always felt, for cardmakers - seeing the pleasure on their face when they get the card!

Great job on this, Mary! Love his shirt & beer! I agree, it's really hard to make a card for someone that age, especially a male.
