Twenty First


I have three 21st cards to make, all for the same young man, and this is the first one.  I've used the colours from colourQ's current challenge:


And the inspiration has come from this card by Julie Ebersole, guest designer for CASE Study:


And one of the current challenges at Moxie Fab World is to emphasise the negative, featuring in Card Creations, Volume 11.


It was a long time ago, but I don't recall there being anything negative about reaching 21!

    Absolutely perfect!

    Lol, no nothing negative about turning 21 but plenty about turning 55 as I just have!

    Love the perfect balance you have created on your card - the negative die cut, the sentiment and the bubblles (hic-up) are so appealing! Great colors too :)
