It's my nephew Theo's 3rd Birthday on Monday, so i had to make some birthday cards for him this week, as they needed posting down to Swansea, Wales, where he lives. He is mad on 'Ben 10' the cartoon at the moment, so that was the theme for his cards this year. I searched the web for some images, and made some background papers with them, then i cut the letters of his name out of these papers, laminated them and adhered to the card, along with a laminated image of Ben. For the second card i found another image i liked, printed it out 4 times and decoupaged it up to make the centre element of the card. I used green and yellow papers for the backgrounds, and diecut 'happy birthday' out of them. Added some yellow and green circle stickers and on the second card i added some stitching detail to tie the card together.
Both of the cards are A3ish in size, so Theo should love them, and hopefully he'll be able to put them on his wall.
