14. sigh.
It happened so fast, my youngest is turning 14 in a few days. He's having a few friends over on Friday night to celebrate with junk food, pizza and video games. In all likelihood it will be his last "friend" party as he is in his last year of middle school. Boys and high school parties just don't happen all that much around here. Now girls are another story.....
Anyway, I wanted to tie his card from us and his birthday invitation together, so I pulled the same images and added numbers and red as an additional color plus altered the layout a bit.
Finished card is 3-3/4" x 5-1/2"
The hardest part of this card? Coming up with a clever, non-roll your eyes, inside verse, that is appropriate for a teenager. Found one after a bit of googling. :)
