30 Reasons To Be Cheerful For A Special Son and Friend’s Son

I had a request recently, to make two cards for the same recipient who was celebrating his 30th birthday, one to be sent from his doting mum and the other to be sent from her best friend. I was asked to include photographs on the ‘Son’ card and chose to make a waterfall card. This is one of the easiest ways to incorporate multiple photos on one card and it’s always a firm favourite, especially with people who haven’t seen this type of card before. The second card I made using some new dies by Studio Light to create a ‘look alike’ of the recipient. I made a background which featured all of his favourite things.
