This card is for my grandson Brendan who is celebrating his 12th. birthday today. Happy Birthday Brendan! Where oh where did the time go?!?! When did you become a "preteen"? Yikes!
Brendan is into music big time...he has a guitar and he even has shoulder length hair. This image from AMuse "Rock Star" is the perfect image for his birthday card. I colored it in with my prismapencils and ran it through the oval nesties. Popped it up on SU! pop dots. I added a little bling for the rock star. *grin*
The blue card stock is SU!. And the patterned paper is by AMuse.
Cute card and I think it fits Brendan perfectly.
I just have one last batch of cookies to make/bake and I'm finished baking....whew. These are my all time favorite cookie and I only bake them once a year. Once you read the recipe you will know why...they are definitely not the most healthy cookie. But ohhhh so good! *grin*
Orange Coconut Drops
2 C. sugar 1 C. butter
3 eggs
1 tsp. each salt & baking powder
1 tsp. vanilla 1 tsp. orange extract
3 1/2 C. flour 1 1/2 C. flaked coconut
In large bowl combine all ingredients
except flour and coconut.

teaspoonfuls 2" apart on greased
